Deputy minister

Deputy Minister is like the helper of a big boss.

Imagine a big boss as the head of a toy factory who has a lot of things to do but cannot do everything by himself. So, he needs someone who can help him with certain tasks. That someone is called the deputy minister.

The deputy minister is like a second in command who works closely with the big boss and carries out some of his important duties. He helps in making important decisions, manages important projects, and supervises other people who work in the factory.

Think of the deputy minister like a trusted friend who helps you in school when you need someone to carry your backpack or share his lunch with you if you forgot yours at home.

So, in summary, a deputy minister is like a helper of a big boss who takes over some important responsibilities to make things easier and more efficient.
