With the General Elections ending in favour of the Bharatiya Janata Party with a landslide margin in votes, it was time for the former Gujarat Chief Minister to retake his oath as the Prime Minister of the largest democracy in the world for his second consecutive term.
On Thursday, Modi along with his Union Ministers were present within the premises of Rashtrapati Bhavan to swear-in their roles at the national leaders which was officiated by the Indian President, Ram Nath Kovind. Get more details about the ceremony, here.
Surely, this was a great moment for the spirit of democracy that India follows and has been following ever since its Independence, the same however, cannot be said about the ruling party's official website for their Delhi wing, delhi.bjp.org.
With a common message which read: 'Hacked by 'Shadow_V1P3R', various pages of the website were replaced with beef cuisines and recipes to make them. The home page, which consisted of some navigation tools to help the user look around the website was also replaced with categories like 'Beef Items', 'Beef Leadership' and 'About Beef'.
As soon as the news of the BJP website getting hacked broke out, people got on Twitter to let the party members know about it:
Dear @BJP4India,
Your website has been hacked. How long will you take to restore the site this time?
Yours faithfully ð pic.twitter.com/xDSwIwWL39

Even though the website was put under maintenance in a couple of hours since the discovery was made and fixed to go back live after being restored, the fact that their websites can be hacked so easily, without a single trace of who 'Shadow V1P3R' really is, calls for some really loud alarming bells, both for the party and their cyber cell.
