The Cabinet of Afghanistan (also known as the Council of Ministers) is the executive body of the government of the country, responsible for day-to-day governance and the implementation of policy set by the Leadership. In his modern form it exists since the beginning of the reign of Emir Amanullah Khan in 1919.
The current Council of Ministers of the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan[2] is headed by the prime minister—who serves as the nation's head of government—and his deputies, and consists of the heads and deputy heads of the government ministries.
