A group of hackers who identified themselves as "Pak Cyber Attackers" on Sunday hacked the website of the Goa Institute of Management, a top B-school in the state.
After the cyber attack, the content uploaded by the hackers on the homepage of www.gim.ac.in suggested that the website was hacked on August 14, Pakistan's Independence Day, in protest against the "killing of Muslims in Kashmir and in India".
"Pakistan Zindabad Happy August 14, 2016 - Team Pak Cyber Attackers - Stop Killing of Muslims in Kashmir and in India," read the homepage of the compromised website which also displayed the Pakistani national flag.
The lead hacker from the group identified himself as Zain Haxor.
The hacked website was later restored.
No First Information Report has been registered yet, according to the police. GIM Director K Balakrishnan could not be reached for comments.
