Kathmandu, 26 Chaitra – Prime Minister Balen Shah will temporarily oversee the Ministry of Labour, Employment and Social Security after Deepak Kumar Sah was dismissed from his ministerial post. This resulted in a revised division of duties within the Cabinet, which has been communicated to the President’s Office, prompting the President to formalize the new portfolio allocations.
Prime Minister Shah relieved Deepak Kumar Sah of his duties today, Thursday. The dismissal reportedly came on the recommendation of the Rastriya Swatantra Party (Raswap) chairperson and was based on allegations of breaches of ministerial conduct and violation of position norms.
