QUETTA: Workers of the Pakistan Tehrik-i-Insaf (PTI) clashed with each other at the Quetta Press Club during distribution of party tickets for the upcoming elections in Balochistan.

PTI Balochistan President Qasim Soori was addressing a press conference when his opponents stood up on their seats. Soori’s opponents inside PTI blamed him for awarding tickets to his favourites for the general elections for the national and provincial assemblies in Balochistan.

“Soori was disqualified by court, we do not accept him,” Asif Tareen, a local leader of PTI told Dawn.com.

The PTI workers also exchanged hot words with each other. However, the situation got under control following the involvement of PTI workers who averted a major clash.

Police were called to ensure peace in the aftermath of the clash.

The incident came two days after a PML-N activist, Sakina Mengal, made a failed attempt at self-immolation, also at the Quetta Press Club.
