The electric field in a region surrounding the origin is uniform and along the $x$-axis. $A$ small circle is drawn with the centre at the origin,cutting the axes at points $A, B, C, D$ having coordinates $(a, 0), (0, a), (-a, 0), (0, -a)$ respectively,as shown in the figure. Then,the potential is minimum at the point:
