MEA website hacked

By Amit Baruah

SINGAPORE, MAY 6. Pro-Pakistani hackers have defiled the website of the Ministry of External Affairs posting anti-India messages on the site. ``We got owned by Number 1 activist force GFORCE,'' one of the many notes put up on the website read.

``India declared terrorist State. Kashmir soon to be a free land and Indian atrocities on Kashmir, When will this end?'' are other messages posted on the website.

The hackers seem to be angry about the repeated references to the ISI and its destabilising role in India. A final message from the hackers reads: ``We will be owning major Indian Government sites in the next few weeks.''
