Noida District Magistrate's Account Hacked

The Noida Police have arrested Sohan Singh, 34, for allegedly hacking the official X account of Gautam Budh Nagar District Magistrate Manish Verma and posting derogatory remarks about Congress leader Rahul Gandhi, referring to him as 'Pappu'. Verma clarified that his account had been hacked and that he had reported the incident to the police, leading to an FIR being filed. The controversy arose following a post by Congress spokesperson Supriya Shrinate, which prompted the unauthorized comment from Verma's account, leading to strong reactions from Congress leaders who accused the administrative staff of politicization and inciting hatred. Verma condemned the misuse of his account, stating that legal action is underway and the cyber cell is investigating the incident. The incident has sparked discussions about the politicization of bureaucracy in India. A police team has been assigned to identify the culprits behind the cybercrime.
