congress.org.in – congress website hack


congress.org.in – congress website hack

Hackers broke into the website of the Congress party Friday, on a day Congress
workers organised functions to celebrate the birthday of party president Sonia
Gandhi, but it was restored soon, party sources said.

The hacking incident coinciding with the birthday of Congress chief Sonia Gandhi
follows angry reactions from netizens to the government's bid to seek content
control from search engines and social networking sites.

The attack came just days after telecom minister Kapil Sibal asked social media
networks, including Facebook, Twitter and Google, to remove offensive material
from their websites, triggering a controversy, with internet users complaining
of censorship.

“It may be the handiwork of miscreants. No serious political meaning need be
drawn into it,” said the party leader.
