ADMK website hacked again

After it lost its aiadmk.org to a portal providing links to Christian cults, satanism and occult, the AIADMK has once again lost its official website, aiadmkindia.org, this time to hackers using the site for 8216;social networking8217;. The staff at the AIADMK headquarters are desperately trying to construct a new site on aiadmkallindia.org.

A senior party leader said J Jayalalithaa had been informed and a new website was under construction. 8220;The website has been hacked. We will not let it happen again,8221; said the leader. The website was first hacked in 2001 and then 8220;put on sale8221;. The second website, aiadmkindia.org, has little on its homepage now that identifies with the party. A click on the topics provides links to commercial products and dating sites. The new AIADMK site appears hastily constructed as most of the links cannot be opened. Except for a few press releases and news clips, much of the party information on the website is still inaccessible to visitors.

However, the initiative of a few Amma fans, electadmk.com, constructed during the May 2006 elections, remains in tact. Claiming to be the first online election campaign of a political party in Asia, the website sought votes for her dubbing her as 8220;Amma8212;The Iron Lady8221;.
