Union minister Maneka Gandhi created a massive row when she threatened Muslims to vote for her or face the risk of not receiving her help. 

The Union minister said with a straight face, “I am winning, but if my victory is without Muslims, I will not feel good, because then there is a bitter feeling... If Muslims come for some work after that I will think ‘why bother’."

Gandhi didn't stop at that. She went on, "Because employment is a negotiation after all, isn’t it? We are not Mahatma Gandhi’s children to keep giving without getting anything in return".
