A screen grab of a Pakistan government’s website taken down by Indian hackers.
Indian cyber warriors took down over 500 Pakistani websites, mostly government-run, on Tuesday, in response to cyber attacks targeting websites of Indian universities, Aaj Tak has reported. Websites of Indian universities, including Aligarh Muslim University and Delhi University, were hacked and defaced late on Tuesday by Pakistani hackers.
The cyber attack emanating from Pakistan came in response to an attack launched by Indian hackers to protest against the death sentence handed out to former Indian Navy officer Kulbhushan Jadhav. A group of cyber warriors from India took down 30 Pakistan government websites, including that of the country’s railway department, leaving a message on each one of them.
Cyber warriors from India and Pakistan came face to face across cyber space soon after hackers from Pakistan attacked and defaced Indian websites following a terrorist attack on a military camp in Jammu and Kashmir’s Uri sector.
Introducing ElectionsHQ + 50 Ground Reports Project
The 2024 elections might seem easy to guess, but there are some important questions that shouldn't be missed.
Do freebies still sway voters? Do people prioritise infrastructure when voting? How will Punjab vote?
The answers to these questions provide great insights into where we, as a country, are headed in the years to come.
Swarajya is starting a project with an aim to do 50 solid ground stories and a smart commentary service on WhatsApp, a one-of-a-kind. We'd love your support during this election season.
