The idea of the CPEC Authority was floated in 2016. However, the then prime minister Nawaz Sharif had shot it down.
The appointment of Lt Gen Asim Bajwa comes as the US has voiced criticism of the CPEC.
About two months ago, a joint parliamentary committee on CPEC also opposed the setting up of the authority through a presidential ordinance.
The selection process for the appointment of the CPEC Authority chairman started and was completed the day the government formally announced replacing Makhdoom Khusro Bakhtiar with Asad Umar as planning minister.
The CPEC Authority has reportedly been given vast powers to summon any information related to CPEC activities and impose penalties on those who fail to do so, Dawn reported.
Opposition parties, including the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz and Pakistan Peoples Party, have already rejected the CPECA and termed it a violation of recommendations of a parliamentary committee.
While the PPP criticised the creation of the CPECA and said it undermined the authority of parliament, the PML-N was of the view that it would create problems and complications in collaboration between the ministries and departments. This would create bureaucratic hurdles and limitations that would hamper and stall the CPEC, they claimed.
On Tuesday, Jamiat Ulema-i-Islam-Fazl chief Maulana Fazlur Rehman also criticised the formation of the CPECA and said the government was making the corridor project controversial.
