He was coming out of his office when the blast took place and his car was severely damaged as a result.
Over 30 injured persons have been admitted in the Jinnah Hospital, Dr Seemi Jamali said.
The security officials reached the area a bit late but were forced to flee by the angry mob of the ANP workers present at the area.
