The incident took place when Vishwas, who is taking on Congress vice president Rahul Gandhi from the Amethi parliamentary constituency, was on way to Sinduriya village.
AAP leaders said that a group of people came out and attacked them. "They were shouting anti-AAP slogans and were asking us to go back from Amethi," according to an AAP leader.
AAP also alleged that a village head led the attack.
Informed sources said soon after the attack, AAP leader and former Delhi education minister Manish Sisodia left for Amethi to attend to the injured workers.
