New Delhi: Bhartiya Janta Party's official website was hacked on Tuesday. Social media users shared screenshots of an unflattering meme featuring Prime Minister Narendra Modi on the website.
According to some reports, the website showed derogatory language and photographs of PM Narendra Modi. While the BJP has not issued any official statement.
The meme pokes fun at clip in which German Chancellor Angela Merkel walks past the prime minister as he extends his hand, expecting her to shake it. A caption above the meme said, in abusive language: "Brothers and sisters, I've fooled all of you. Brothers and sisters, we've fooled all of you. More to come! Many, many congratulations!" Below the meme was a music video of Bohemian Rhapsody.
Shortly afterwards, the website became inaccessible and showed the Error 522 message.
