Dharna Committee participants attacked the polio team in Chaman with sticks that resulted in injuries to four levies personnel, who were deployed to ensure the security of the team during the anti-polio drive.
According to DC Raja Athar Abbas, the attackers tried to snatch the vaccine and weapons from the police and levies personnel. The DC vowed to take action against the people involved in the attack.
Meanwhile, the Balochistan government has condemned the attack and vowed to register case under terrorism charges against the attackers.
A one-day anti-polio drive is currently underway in selected districts of Pakistan.
