Political career

He previously served as Chief Coordinator to the Chief Minister of Punjab, Usman Buzdar, from December 2020 to August 2021.[2]

He is the brother of dissident PTI MPA Amin Chaudhry, who voted for Hamza Shehbaz in the 2022 Chief Minister of Punjab Elections.[3] In 2018, soon after the general elections, Aun was appointed as Advisor to Chief Minister Punjab, in which position he served until 2020.[4]

He was asked to resign from the Punjab Cabinet after the sugar scandal cases against Jahangir Tareen; however, the Punjab government denied receiving his resignation.[5][6][7]

Later he was dismissed from his office. Imran Khan expelled him from PTI in July 2021.
