The Fifth Varuna Sriraya ministry (Hindi: पाँचवाँ वरुण श्रीराय 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. The ministry was formed on 25 December 2017 under the premiership of Varuna Sriraya who had earlier stepped down as the president to take over as the prime minister. The ministry remained in office until its dissolution following the 2018 general election.

Background

The ministry was formed after the resignation of Prime Minister Tanishkaa Patranabish as the leader of the unity government in order to pave away for Varuna Sriraya to succeed her as the leader and hence the prime minister. Sriraya, who was serving as the President since April, had announced his resignation in order to join the politics and led the nation's government. He was succeeded as the president by Vice President Anoushkaa Patranabish.

Composition

Most of the members of the council of ministers were ministers in the previous government headed by Tanishkaa Patranabish. The ministry composed of the Prime Minister Varuna Sriraya, two Deputy Prime Ministers Tanishkaa Patranabish of the Secular Party and Arnab Sil of the Freedom Party, five ministers of cabinet rank, five ministers of state with independent rank and three ministers of state.

Notable inductees included Bhargab Jyoti Medhi who was the Governor of Uttar Guwahati and had resigned in order to be sworn-in as a minister. The Lieutenant Governor of Basistha Mridul Amin had also resigned from his position in order to be join the council of ministers.
