Modi's website still accessible in Pakistan. PHOTO: AFP/FILE
People in Pakistan cannot access the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) website as the party has blocked its internet page for visitors from Pakistan, Zee News reported on Tuesday.
“The owner of this website (www.bjp.org) has banned your IP address on the country or region you are accessing it from,” a message informs the visitor.
The ban comes a day after BJP leader LK Advani’s website was hacked allegedly by a Pakistani hacker who posted “free Kashmir” and “Pakistan zindabad” messages on the website.
The hacker had called for an end to the “militarised governance in Kashmir”.
However, BJP’s prime ministerial candidate Narendra Modi's website can still be accessed from within Pakistan.

Oh no! we're missing out on so much
Now the question also arises that:
How Modi deals with India’s Muslim community, who represent about 13 percent of the total population, will be closely watched by observers in India and abroad. Jonah Blank, Ph.D., a senior political scientist at the RAND Corp. in Arlington, Va., and an expert on South Asian affairs, noted that Modi has to reach some kind of understanding with Indian Muslims, some of whom view him with hostility, or at least, extreme skepticism. “[Modi] will have to be the leader of all Indian citizens; he can't just write off more than the 130 million citizens who are Muslim,” Blank said. “He can win without their votes, but he can't alienate them without damaging his legitimacy. At a minimum, he'll have to offer some sort of accountability for the [Gujarati] riots of 2002."
In’t this reflect that upcoming government really gets scared from Pakistani hackers? So they simply shut their doors while danger is still standing outside. This is a a hilarious solution which our party presented out. Is this kind of a solution to be applied with all dilemmas of India? If there is a hunger or poverty, simply to crack down on people like they are doing so by building careless number of nuclear power plants across the country. Nuclear accidents can kill the poor people of our nation. Ironic enough….
I am waiting for Indian Hackers to hack BJP's website, Modi needs a lesson, his hawkish policies should be exposed to masses.
A remembrance of an ancient proverb “to bury head in sand.” An ostrich simply bury its small head in sand when felt endangered despite of its big body. This fits in a case with BJP.
This is what our ancestors call 'Two Nation Theory'. . Major Pakistani websites should block access in India too. Separate but equal...
I appreciate the hard work of this hacker and I wish him best so that he can get Kashmir freed . But if he doesn't succeed in doing so , I will feel extremely sorry for his hard work gone in vain. Lol.
There is a thing called ethical hacking and the definition varies from country to country.
Well, Thats the Extent of the Pakistani software industry for you. Juvenile defacement of websites???? Truly juvenile
The BJP website has been blocked since quite some time. It has nothing to do with the LK Advani website hacking.
Modi trolled!!
If he gets to the throne somehow, subcontinental unrest will hit a new peak
u r hacked by pakistani haxors bjp
Have anyone heard of a Israeli hacker who defaced Palestinian websites or a US hacker who defaced Russia's website???
We will never hear of that,but US and Israeli hackers put the entire nuclear programme in Iran on hold by hacking their servers and deleting all sensitive information....
its only we Indians and pakistanis "hacker" think they are brilliant by defacing websites which has a low algorithm protection and cannot get any useful information across.......
lol i can't believe they're so backward, haven't they heard of proxy servers?!
So it is proved that BJP is dead scared of couple of Pakistani hackers. Really LOL!!!
Afraid of the power of liberal forces in Pakistan who successfully managed to block fascists coming to power in Pakistan.
Do we really care?
Oh..We are really afraid . These hackers are wrecking havoc .
A big LoL over that! And this is the party that is claming to give back India its past glory and what not! Hahahahha
There's a reason behind it. We seriously do not want Pakistani hackers to defame our websites (Like they did of LKA yesterday) to get a very low level of closure. BTW, there are more Indians in IT sector, educated and more responsible. They have jobs and spend their time coding programs which helps the industry (Which pays them well), rather then unemployed, frustrated masses whining for attention. Being proud of hackers is the last thing any responsible sane minded man would do.
