History of the office

The position was abolished according to the current Constitution. It provided that the president is both the head of state and head of government.
On 1 August 2021, State Administration Council formed the caretaker government and vice chairman of SAC became Deputy Prime Minister.
On 31 July 2025, the NDSC ended the state of emergency and re-formed the Union Government, with the position of deputy prime minister abolished.
