Aun Chaudhry

He married former actress Noor Bukhari in 2012 but ended their relationship after a few months. They eventually remarried in 2020.[1] However his marriage certificate is questionable as Noor Bukhari was still in Nikkah of her former spouse when they both got married.

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 due to selling guest passes of PM Imran Khan’s Oath Taking ceremony.

He was a candidate for NA-128 Lahore-XII in the 2024 Pakistani general election, running as a member of Istehkam-e-Pakistan Party. Independent journalists such as Secunder Kermani expected the seat to be overwhelmingly won by the PTI-affiliated candidate Salman Akram Raja, on the basis of voter interviews.[8] However, while Form 45 from the Election Commission of Pakistan showed Raja with a decisive lead, the more final Form 47 reported Chaudhry as having won 172,576 votes to Raja's 159,024 votes. Raja, PTI supporters, and independent journalists claimed the ECP Form 47 results showed clear evidence of rigging by the Army, and the Lahore High Court issued a stay on a final declaration of the results by ECP until a hearing could be fixed to investigate the matter.[9][10]
