'Lack of communication': Sanjeev Sanyal reinstated as Chancellor of GIPE

TWO days after removing economist Sanjeev Sanyal, the Servants of India Society (SIS), which manages the Gokhale Institute of Politics and Economics (GIPE), has reinstated him, apologising for the mistake due to miscommunication.

Earlier, Sanyal, a member of Prime Minister Narendra Modi's economic council, was removed by SIS, citing poor performance at GIPE and a downgrade in its National Accreditation rating from A to B.

However, within two days, the SIS trustees reversed their decision and sent a letter to Sanyal informing him of his reappointment. The letter was shared by Sanyal on his social media account.
