Source & verification
Cross-referenced against Wikipedia's "Sudan Gurung" and "Minister of Home Affairs (Nepal)" articles, both of which list him as the incumbent since 9 June 2026. His first stint as Home Minister (27 March – 22 April 2026) ended in a widely reported resignation over scrutiny of his financial dealings, then he returned to the post on 9 June 2026. Given how frequently this specific position has changed hands in 2025–2026 (at least four different office holders within about a year), this record should be re-verified against a current news source before being treated as authoritative for any date significantly after the lastVerified date above — do not assume this is still accurate without checking.
