Google India’s head of public policy Dr Archana Gulati has reportedly resigned five months after taking the job. The resignation comes as the Silicon Valley-based company faces a slew of antitrust cases in India.
The reasons for Dr. Gulati’s resignation were not made clear, according to a Reuters report citing sources. Dr. Gulati led a team of public policy executives at Google to stay on top of various regulatory implications for Google in India. Dr. Gulati previously served as the joint secretary for the government’s think tank, NITI Aayog, and has previously held several government positions. She is a retired officer of the Indian Civil Services from the 1989 batch.
