Donald Trump has been sworn in as US President for the second time. However, within hours of his inauguration, Indian-origin entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy, the deputy head of the Department of Government Efficiency, announced his resignation.
Vivek Ramaswamy wrote on his X account, "It has been an honor for me to help create DOGE. I am confident that Elon and his team will successfully streamline the government. I will inform you about my future plans in Ohio very soon. Above all, we are doing our best to help President Trump Make America Great Again!"
However, his sudden resignation has raised questions. According to sources, his tense relationship with Elon Musk and some policy conflicts with the Trump administration played a role in his departure from DOGE.
According to a report by Politico, Elon Musk expressed his desire for Ramaswamy to leave DOGE. The reason for this has been cited as strained relations between them. In addition, a Republican strategist close to the Trump administration's advisers said, "He had severed ties and was also in conflict with Elon. That is why he was asked to move away from Mar-a-Lago."
Ramaswamy has been discussed and controversial for his position on the H1-B visa program. He criticized the over-reliance on foreign workers in the US technology sector. His statement created a negative reaction and was seen as an opposition to the expansion of visas for skilled workers.
Ramaswamy's resignation has sparked a controversy in the early days of the Trump administration, which was unexpected by many.
