Indian-American Republican presidential aspirant Bobby Jindal has found himself in the butt of jokes, after he invited questions on Twitter, which attracted a barrage of tweets from people asking bizarre questions and poking fun at him.

Ahead of the town hall event in Iowa, Jindal's Believe Again political action committee has encouraged the people to ask the presidential candidate questions on Twitter with the #AskBobby hashtag, and the move has backfired.

"First town hall featuring Bobby Jindal is tonight in Waukee. Send us your questions with #AskBobby! Be sure to include your name and city," Believe Again PAC tweeted.

"Is the cognitive dissonance of having a biology degree and being viciously anti-science overwhelming?" a tweet said.

"#AskBobby #AskPiyush When did God create the Dinosaurs?" mocked a twitter user.

"If you're going to spend 5 days a week in Iowa can we put the gov mansion on AirBnB & make up some of the deficit you've created?" a tweet said.

"I'm gay, an atheist & an immigrant. How would you work to punish me, while ignoring separation of church and state?" a person asked.

Jindal is the first Indian-American to make a presidential bid and is the 13th Republican aspirant to target the White House in this election cycle.
