The Prime Minister-elect, after a unanimous decision from the executive committee, will not take up the additional Ministry.
According to the Party’s Spokesperson, Tandin Wangmo, the decision is in keeping with the interest of the nation. PDP had earlier pledged that the Prime Minister will assume the portfolio of at least a Ministry, during their first 100 days of office, to ensure that there is no need to have too many ministries.
“It is the decision of the executive committee that the PM does not take up the portfolio of another ministry keeping in mind the best interest of the nation and also for the purpose of good governance,” she said.
Tandin Wangmo said it was unanimously decided today that the PM will refrain from taking any other portfolio.
