Fiji Village reports that Dr Punit Sethi has since returned to India.
No details had been given to explain the sudden departure of Dr Sethi.
He is the latest in a string of senior bureaucrats to quit with little explanation after short stints in the job.
Since 2016, the heads of the ministries of health and agriculture, the head of the land Transport Authority, and the permanent secretaries of infrastructure and communications, have all quit.
A fortnight ago, the country's chief climate negotiator, Nazhat Shameem Kumar, left her role without any explanation, but will remain as Fiji's representative in Geneva.
