New Delhi, April 30 (IANS) Harin Raval resigned as additional solicitor general Tuesday, a day after locking horns with Attorney General G.E. Vahanvati on the vetting of the CBI status report on its probe into the allocation of coal blocks.

Confirming that he had quit, Raval said that he has already sent his resignation letter but declined to dwell on the reasons for taking the step.
