As Union Minister Smriti Irani campaigned in Madhya Pradesh on Wednesday ahead of the sixth phase of voting, one of her attacks on Congress chief Rahul Gandhi seemingly backfired.
The senior BJP leader asked a crowd gathered at her rally in Ashoknagar, about 200 km from state capital Bhopal, whether they had received farm loans waivers from the state government as promised by Mr Gandhi.
"Yes, we have," an emphatic crowd responded, and then repeated it.
"Yes, we have."
A video of the incident was shared by the Madhya Pradesh Congress on Twitter. Smriti Irani can be seen pausing during her speech, as the crowd roared.
