Deepak Kumar Sah is a public health expert and politician serving as Minister for Labour, Employment and Social Security. At 34, he was elected from Mahottari-2, defeating 19-time Labour Minister Sharat Singh Bhandari. His appointment places him at the center of Nepal's labor migration challenges, with over 2,000 youths leaving the country daily. He immediately reformed the ministry's permit system, replacing the old token system with same-day labor permit issuance and digitizing pre-departure orientation training for migrant workers.
