The National Commission for Protection of Child Rights (NCPCR) stated that the complaint pertains to a video in which children were seen using abusive language in front of Gandhi.
Though in the video, Gandhi could be seen asking the children to not use abusive language, a complaint was lodged for allegedly 'using children for the campaigning'.
In its notice, the child rights body objected to the use of children in election campaigning.
It also underlined that the Bombay High Court in an order on August 4, 2014 said that children should not be included in election campaigns.
The body has asked the Congress general secretary to provide details, within three days, of the names and addresses of these children, places where sloganeering took place and how the children reached there.
