Amethi: An interesting moment was exchanged between Congress’s Priyanka Gandhi Vadra and a group of children in Uttar Pradesh's Amethi. The video of the incident was widely circulated on social media.

In the video, Gandhi was seen asking the children to 'shush' as they started to abuse the Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

While campaigning in her brother's constituency Amethi, Priyanka Gandhi came across a group of boys, who overwhelmingly chanted Congress' hotly propogated slogan - "Chowkidar chor hai, chowkidar chor hai."   

Amid the continuous recitation of the political catchphrase, a kid started to shout slogans abusing PM Modi; to which the Congress leader, clamped her mouth in shock and asked them to stop by saying: "Yeh wala nahin. Accha nahin lagega. Acche bachche bano (Not this one. It is not nice. Be good children)."
Later, the boys started shouting: "Rahul Gandhi zindabad."

The video created a buzz on internet and was even shared by Union Minister Smriti Irani and BJP's candidate from the constituency.
