India's premier news agency Press Trust of India (PTI) was hacked on Wednesday evening between 7.30 pm to 7.50 pm by a group called 'Iran Crack Security' team.
The hackers changed the PTI logo on Twitter and posted a few tweets such as 'Best channel in the telegram' 'Join the best channel telegram' and 'learn something news'.
The services were resumed within few minutes.
PTI later issued a statement on their official Twitter handle saying, "Between 7:30 PM and 7.50 PM, PTI Twitter account was hacked. PTI is not responsible for any messages that could have appeared in that period."
