The pop up read: "Hacked by Dark Knight to support jamia students.. Jai Hind!"

The news section on the homepage of the hacked website also had message in support of the students.

"Modi-Shah thinks we are dumb like their followers but we the students read. We know how the first people would be declared foreigners by NRC and then everyone will be absorbed back through CAA except our Muslims (sic)," the message read.

It said, "Every attack on us students is a blow to your grand empire of hatred. Students it's time to organize and unite! Rise our cause on the international stage and fight like Hong Kong students because it's time to save our democracy!"
