Rahul even asked the child saying, "Hello! Will you take ice-cream?" 

The child could be seen in a video of the incident, shared on the social media by the Congress, smilingly accepting the offer.

Gandhi was seen wearing a back t-shirt in the video.

The video has been retweeted 2.1 K times on times.

It has earned 7.1K likes.

Rahul began his two-day visit to the state on Monday.

The state polls will be held on Nov 28. The counting of votes will take place on Dec 11.

The Madhya Pradesh poll is crucial for both the Congress and ruling BJP ahead of the next Lok Sabha elections, which will be held in few months' time.
