Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s official Twitter handle (@narendramodi) got briefly hacked by a yet unidentified hacker. The hacking occurred early Sunday morning.
This is the second hack attack on an account connected to the Indian premiere in two years – Previously, on September 2nd, 202o, PM Modi’s personal Twitter account was hacked for a Bitcoin-related scam.
Twitter claims that none of its systems was breached in the hack and stated that the lines of communication with the Indian PM are open round-the-clock.
The account was spontaneously secured when the company was notified about the incident. However, internal investigation from Twitter revealed that no other accounts linked to the PM or Indian government were impacted.
