The Telangana High Court website has been hacked. When you try to download order copies, a betting platform appears on the screen. Instead of PDF files, the site redirects you to the BDG SLOT betting page.
The High Court registrar filed a police complaint, and the Cyber crime police registered a case and began their investigation. The website tshc.gov.in, hosted by the National Informatics Center at BRKR Bhavan on Tank Bund road, normally provides cause list details, case status, notices and notifications.
After receiving the complaint, a police team reached the High Court. NIC is now checking the website's functionality, and the police will act further once the report is ready.
The hacking was first noticed on November 10. Since then, the case has been filed and Cyber crime officials are actively working on it. This is one of the major hacking incidents involving a government website in recent times and highlights the need for stronger Cyber security.
