Earlier, the PTI activists, led by party founder Imran Khan’s wife Bushra Bibi, reached D-Chowk after removing obstacles on the way.
The caravans reached Zero Point on the main Islamabad-Srinagar Highway where they clashed with law-enforcement officials when they were stopped from marching further.
Police fired tear gas shells on marchers to disperse them. The protesters, in retaliation, pelted police personnel with stones.
The boundaries of Red Zone begin beyond Zero Point, where military personnel have been deployed.
