But in one of the tweet anonymous hacking group taken the responsibly of this attach.Anonymous is a biggest hacker group in the world they did not agree withe move of government,their demand is do not censer internet by making law.They are protesting against the censorship of internet.

Last week they have hacked many websites like indian national congress party website,BJP’s oficial website,CERT (indian computer emergency response),indian parliament website and manny more govt oficial site to lift the ban from file sharing sites on the internet like vimeo and other torrent site.now they have hacked RBI (Reserve Bank of India) .

Last night Anonymous’s OpIndia twitter account@opindia_revenge was suspended so they defaced 35 government websites in a single night. It’s not right to stop voice of public and its also not acceptable that you block or suspend some user’s account on speaking truth. But Indian government is doing all this crappy shit silently and also suppressing Indian Media from covering the news about #OpIndia movement. Websites so defaced are set with a message of Anonymous.
