Chief Minister Prem Singh Golay relinquishes two ministries – Skill Development Department to Bhim Hang Limboo and Information and Technology Department to Mani Kumar Sharma. BH Limboo holds additional ministries of Public Health Engineering, Water Resources Department.

Health Minister MK Sharma got the IT Department but had to relinquish the Social Welfare and Women and Child Development Department to Sanjit Kharel.

Sherpa who serves as Power Department Minister had to relinquish the Labour Department to Lok Nath Sharma. LN Sharma also holds ministries of Agriculture, Horticulture, Animal Husbandry and Veterinary Services Department.

Similarly, Lok Nath Sharma was previously minister for the IPR Department, now Tourism minister Bedu Singh Panth will look after the Information and Public Relations Department along with Printing and Stationery Department. Panth also holds the portfolios of the Commerce and Industries Department.
