Source & verification
Confirmed as the sitting Minister for Foreign Affairs directly on the Ministry's own official website (which displays his name and title on its homepage) and cross-referenced against Wikipedia's "Minister of Foreign Affairs (Nepal)" article, which lists him as incumbent since 27 March 2026 under Prime Minister Balendra Shah. Name spelling note: the Ministry's own site spells the given name "Shisir," while some secondary sources (including Wikipedia) spell it "Shishir" — this record follows the primary source's own spelling. As with other cabinet-position records added in Phase 14, re-verify before relying on this for a date much later than lastVerified, given how frequently Nepal's cabinet composition has changed through 2025–2026.
