It should be noted that this is the second time Fawad Chaudhry has been given portfolio of federal information ministry in two and a half years of PTI’s government.

He was given charge of the ministry when the federal cabinet took oath in August 2018.

However, he was released of his duties and was given the charge of Minister for Science and Technology.

Following his departure, Dr. Firdaus Ashiq Awan was appointed as Special Assistant to PM (SAPM) on Information and Broadcasting but was replaced with Senator Shibli Faraz in April 2020 who served on the post to date.

After the Senate elections, Prime Minister has made significant changes to his cabinet.

Imran Khan in his first move, removed Finance Minister, Abdul Hafeez Sheikh, and replaced him with Hammad Azhar.
