"Yes he (Raman) has submitted his resignation to the BCCI President and BCCI President has accepted it," IPL Chairman Rajeev Shukla said
"No doubt he was a very competent person and looked after IPL all these years with maximum ability and command. I appreciate his contribution to the IPL and wish him best for his future."
Acccording to a top source, Raman met BCCI president Shashank Manohar in Nagpur on Monday and submitted his resignation

Despite all the controversies, Raman managed to sail through for two years.
