      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) rejected on Sunday the appointment of Mohsin Raza Naqvi as caretaker Punjab chief minister.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Taking to Twitter former information minister and PTI leader Fawad Chaudhry said that the electoral watchdog never failed to disappoint. “We reject the decision to appoint a controversial person like Mohsin Naqvi as the chief minister.”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;He called on party workers to prepare for a large campaign against the appointment of caretaker chief minister.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In his video statement, Chaudhry accused the electroral body of giving decisions as a subsidiary of Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz and Pakistan People’s Party.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;“Mohsin Naqvi’s appointment is made to block the way of PTI by rigging the elections,” the PTI leader said and added that his party would challenge the appointment in ​​the court.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;“We will run a big movement under the leadership of Imran Khan,” Chaudhry said and urged the people to come to the streets for a decisive movement.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;    &lt;figure class='media  w-full  w-full  media--stretch    media--uneven  media--stretch'&gt;
        &lt;div class='media__item  media__item--twitter  '&gt;&lt;span&gt;
    &lt;blockquote class="twitter-tweet" lang="en"&gt;
        &lt;a href="https://twitter.com/PTIofficial/status/1617197203927220226"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;
    &lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
        
    &lt;/figure&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The reaction came after ECP appointed Naqvi as caretaker Punjab chief minister.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Taking to Twitter, former prime minister and PTI chief Imran Khan slammed ECP for selecting “a sworn enemy of PTI” as a caretaker Punjab chief minister.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;“ECP has helped reduce Pakistan to a Banana Republic making our democracy a joke. I will be holding a presser tomorrow to expose this entire farce,” the PTI chief added.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;    &lt;figure class='media  w-full  w-full  media--stretch    media--uneven  media--stretch'&gt;
        &lt;div class='media__item  media__item--twitter  '&gt;&lt;span&gt;

    &lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
        
    &lt;/figure&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Meanwhile, former Punjab Chief Minister Chaudhry Pervez Elahi also rejected the appointment, saying that how could justice be expected from the person who made a plea bargain of 3.5 million rupees in Haris Steel case.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;“The controversial decision of the Election Commission is against every rule and regulation. We are going to the Supreme Court against the decision of the election commission.”&lt;/p&gt;
