He resigned after only two days in office[2] when his appointment became controversial after reports suggested he was appointed minister after his brother-in-law Chief Justice Cholendra Shumsher JBR,[3] who had earlier reinstated parliament making it possible for Deuba to become prime minister, pressured the coalition partners to appoint two people close to him as ministers.
