Anonymous, the group of hackers who remains elusive has taken down the websites of Supreme Court of India and All India Congress. The reason cited is this: “Internet Censorship, this take down comes after the website like Vimeo, ThePirateBay etc have been blocked by most of the Indian ISP on government request.”
A tweet came from the Twitter handle of Anonymous:
Namaste #India, your time has come to trash the current government and install a new one. Good luck. | #SaveTPB #Anonymous #Censorship

A video has also been posted on the video sharing website Youtube.com, with a message that reads thus:
Hello, Citizens of India and the world.
We are anonymous.
The Department Of Telecom has ordered all Internet Service providers in India to block access to all file sharing websites, legal or illegal.
We cannot let any censorship happen.
This is just like what the high court in the UK have done, ordering to block all access to ThePirateBay.We will not let this go.
We are anonymous.
We are legion.
United as one.
Divided by zero.
Ideas are bulletproof.
Expect revolution, Expect us!Operation India, Engaged.
Currently the websites of Supreme Court and Congress Party have temporarily been taken off.
