Terror outfit Al Qaeda on Tuesday allegedly hacked a microsite belonging to the Indian Railways on Tuesday.

Al Qaeda hacked the page of Bhusawal division of Personnel Department of the Central Railway which was created for the department's administrative needs. After the attack, it showed a message by Maulana Aasim Umar, Al Qaeda chief in south Asia, addressing all Muslims.

The message read as "Why is there no storm in your ocean? A message for Muslims of India from Maulana Aasim Umar (May Allah protect him)."

There was also an 11-page document on the hacked page. It read, ""Will the land of Delhi not give birth to a Shah Muhadith Delhvi who may once again teach the Muslims of India the forgotten lesson of Jihad and inspire them to take to the battlefields of Jihad? Is there no successor left of the group that drenched itself in blood at Balakot, who possesses the spirit of rising in rebellion against a system based on disbelief and offering one's life for Allah?." It also asked Muslims to unite and conduct jihad against United States and its allies.

It has been reported that Umar aka Sanaul Haq has been appointed as the Al Qaeda in the Indian sub-continent (AQIS) last year.

He joined the jihadist group following the Babri Masjid demolition in December 1992. He is an alumnus of Dar-ul-Uloom seminary at Deoband from where he graduated in 1991. He disappeared from Sambhal in 1995.
