The incident comes after several Twitter accounts of prominent personalities were hacked in July. Twitter said it was aware of the activity with Modi’s website account and has taken steps to secure it. Modi’s office did not immediately respond to a request for comment on the tweets posted on the account @narendramodi_in. The account, with over 2.5 million followers, is the official Twitter handle for Modi's personal website and the Narendra Modi mobile application. Modi’s personal Twitter account, which was unaffected by this incident, has over 61 million followers.
