The Fifth Dhrubajyoti Roy ministry (Hindi: पाँचवाँ ध्रुबज्योति रॉय मंत्रिमंडल) was the 11th union council of ministers of Vishwamitra which was formed after the resignation of Tanishkaa Patranabish as the Prime Minister and leader of the unity government.

He was succeeded as the president by Vice President Anoushkaa Patranabish.
