The website of UP Higher Education Service Commission was hacked on Tuesday with the hackers replacing the last name ‘Allahabadi’ of some renowned poets with ‘Praygaraji’ in an “apparent resentment” of the change of the name this historical city, an official said.

The Prayagraj-based Commission, however, was able to restore its Hindi website and the work is on to restore its English portal, Commission chairman Ishwar Charan Vishvaarma told PTI.
