Kathmandu. The website of the National Identity Card and Registration Department has come under cyber attack. Because of this, all services related to National Identity Card have been blocked. The 'Nepali for Nepal' group claimed responsibility for hacking the site and claimed to be a 'research group dedicated to protecting the future of the nation'. It is said that they have access to the admin panel of the department and are in a position to view the entire database.
The group has also warned that the government will face the consequences if Durga Prasai, activist and businessman of the Civil Defense Campaign, is not released within 24 hours. When opening the website, the warning notice appeared. Namraj Ghimire, director general of the department, confirmed the attack on the website and said that the site has now been shut down and the technical team is preparing to resume operations. In addition, the department sources also informed that all data is safe.
Recently, the Election Commission had linked the details of the national identity card while collecting the voter list. But the hacked site does not contain any details of the National Identity Card, the employees said.
