Her supporters in large numbers gathered at the hospital as the news of attack spread in the region.

Kiran was addressing a meeting in the village when stones were hurled at her.. “Kiran Choudhry suffered injuries on the chest when someone hurled stones at her taking the advantage of the darkness,” Mahendragarh SP Jagat Singh said.

The attackers will be identified and nabbed soon, he said. Kiran Chaudhary's daughter and Congress nominee from Bhiwani - Mahindergarh constituency Shruti Choudhry alleged that the attack took place at the behest of BJP candidate Dharambir Singh.
