Srivastava's resignation comes just three days after the reigning Miss USA, Noelia Voigt, stepped down from her title to focus on her mental health.
Voigt, 24, who earned the Miss USA crown in September, thanked her fans for their love and support throughout her pageantry endeavor in a lengthy post shared on social media.

"In life, I strongly value the importance of making decisions that feel best for you and your mental health," she wrote on Instagram. "As individuals, we grow through experiencing different things in life that lead us to learning more about ourselves. My journey as Miss USA has been incredibly meaningful, representing Utah with pride, and later the USA at Miss Universe.
Voigt continued, "Never could I have imagined the journey that my childhood dream would take me on. Constant and consistent hard work and dedication all lead me to where I am today, and I hope that over the last seven years of competing in pageantry and sharing my journey with you all is something that inspires you to never give up on your dreams, whatever they may be."
Shortly after Voigt announced her resignation, the Miss USA Organization offered "respect and support" to Noelia and her decision to step down from her duties.

"The well-being of our titleholders is a top priority, and we understand her need to prioritize herself at this time," the organization said in a statement provided to Fox News Digital.
"The organization is currently reviewing plans for the transition of responsibilities to a successor and an announcement regarding the crowning of the new Miss USA will be coming soon."
Voigt was previously crowned Miss Alabama Collegiate in 2020, and she represented the United States at the Miss Universe 2023 pageant in El Salvador.
