Among the 19 dead were 12 Sikhs and Hindus, while 20 people suffered injuries in the latest violence to rock the country.
Police chief Ghulam Sanaei Stanikzai told Pajhwok Afghan News that the suicide bomber detonated his explosives when the minority community members wanted to enter the governor's house to meet President Ashraf Ghani, who was visiting the region.
However, Ghani's spokesman said the president was still in Nangarhar but was "away from danger".
The attack comes a day after Ghani ordered Afghan security forces to resume offensive operations against the Taliban following the expiration of the government's 18-day ceasefire.
No one immediately claimed responsibility for the attack, but the Taliban and an Islamic State affiliate are active in the province.
Sikhs and Hindus have long suffered widespread discrimination in the conservative Muslim country and been targeted by Islamic extremists.
The community numbered more than 80,000 in the 1970s, but today only around 1,000 remain in the country. Under Taliban rule in the late 1990s, they were told to identify themselves by wearing yellow armbands, but the dictate was not wholly enforced.
