Haque Nawaz Akhtar Chaudhry (born 23 July 1961) is a Pakistani-Norwegian politician for the Socialist Left Party and 4th Vice President (deputy speaker) of the Norwegian parliament. Chaudhry came to Norway from Pakistan in 1982.[2]
He served in the position of deputy representative to the Norwegian Parliament from Oslo during the terms 2001–2005 and 2005–2009. Halfway into the latter term, in 2007, he moved up as a regular representative as Heidi Sørensen (who in turn filled in for Kristin Halvorsen) was appointed State Secretary. He has been a member of Parliament since then. When Heidi Sørensen returned to Parliament in 2012, Heikki Holmås joined the cabinet, so from then Chaudry replaced him in Parliament.
On 4 December 2012 Akthar Chaudry lost a nomination election in Oslo SV for the top spot on the party´s ballot in the Norwegian parliamentary election of 2013. He was not interested in spots further down the ballot and will not be reelected to the parliament in 2013.[3]
