Haryana's Excise and Taxation Minister Kiran Chaudhary was injured when some people attacked her during a political rally in Haryana's Narnaul town Wednesday evening, police said.

Chaudhary was addressing a rally in Narnaul, over 360 km from here, when some miscreants pelted stones at her.

She was rushed to a hospital in Narnaul from where she was taken to Gurgaon for treatment.

District police chief J.S. Hooda said raids were being conducted at various places to apprehend those behind the incident.

Chaudhary was campaigning for her daughter and sitting Congress MP Shruti Chaudhary who is seeking re-election from the Bhiwani-Mahendergarh Lok Sabha seat.

Haryana's 10 Lok Sabha seats go to polls April 10.
