Buzdar not acceptable as CM: JT Group
In August 2021, Chaudry resigned from the position of Special Coordinator to Chief Minister Punjab on Political Affairs after refusing to distance himself from the Jahangir Tareen group.
He tendered his resignation to Punjab Chief Minister Usman Buzdar after he was given an option of either disassociate himself from the Jahangir Tareen group or step down from the post.
However, the Punjab government denied receiving the resignation letter from Chaudry.
