# First Deuba cabinet

The first Sher Bahadur Deuba cabinet was formed on 12 September 1995. After Man Mohan Adhikari lost support in the House of Representatives, he recommended to dissolve the lower house. However, the Supreme Court restored the lower house and King Birendra appointed Nepali Congress parliamentary party leader Sher Bahadur Deuba as prime minister on 11 September 1995. He was supported by the Rastriya Prajatantra Party and Nepal Sadbhawana Party.
The cabinet was expanded on 22 September 1995 and again on 13 December 1995. The cabinet was reshuffled on 10 June 1996 and on 8 January 1997. After losing a no-confidence motion, he resigned as prime minister on 7 March 1997 and the cabinet was dissolved on 10 March 1997 after the appointment of Lokendra Bahadur Chand.
