It seemed that the official website of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP website) was intentionally hacked while Prime Minister Narendra Modi and his Council of Minister were taking the oath of office.

The hacker group took control of the website and inserted their new pages instead of the initial ones. More exactly, the BJP website showed an unexpected section called ‘Beef Items’ containing many kinds of beef dishes, like Beef Dry Roast. In the recipe, hackers even provided full of ingredients and specific instructions to cook this dish.

Besides, the hackers didn’t forget to send a message next to the recipe saying that 'HACKED BY SHADOW _V1P3R'. Every word ‘BJP’ in this portal was replaced with ‘Beef’. In other words, ‘BJP’ turned into ‘Beef Leadership’.

Right after detecting the sudden incident, a cybersecurity expert named Elliot Alderson tweeted on the website of the Bharatiya Janata Party to inform about the attack. "Dear @BJP4India, Your website has been hacked. How long will you take to restore the site this time? Yours faithfully (sic)."

Within some next minutes, the BJP website returned its initial state. However, lots of internet users accidentally witnessed the dilemma.
