Chohan is given the ministry in addition to his current portfolio of colonies department, according to a notification issued on Monday.
The foul-mouthed leader was taken back in the provincial cabinet in July amid uproar from the opposition parties.
In a resolution tabled in the Punjab Assembly, the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) called the government’s move of giving Chohan colonies ministry ‘shameful’, since he had displayed religious prejudices and given controversial statements against the four million Hindus in Pakistan.
