I am not associated with him in anyway. His resignation has nothing to do with me," Yoshitha said.Posts have been circulating on social media since Wednesday, that Iraj had submitted his resignation from the NYSC due to him being assaulted by Yoshitha.Iraj was a non-executive director at the NYSC. He had sent a letter to Sports and Youth Affairs Minister Namal Rajapaksa on Wednesday informing his decision to resign from the post.He said the decision was taken as he had to attend to some urgent personal work.
