The Cyber Express reported that they reached out to the official channels for verification of the cyberattack claim. However, as of now, there has been no response from the government’s end.

While publishing the report, the E visa services appears to be fully functional. It raises the possibility that the hacktivist group may be using the cyberattack as a tactic to gain attention or there might be a different motive behind the assault.
