The clash erupted between two groups of workers after the PTI chairman left the camp near Metropolitan Corporation office, following his address with workers and supporters there.

The party activists, appeared to be disheartened by Imran's departure from the camp, burnt party flags. They used batons and pelted rocks at each other, forcing police to intervene.

Raged members of the party also tossed a chair on the PTI chief's vehicle as it passed through Airport Road.
