The official Twitter accounts of the Congress party and its vice president Rahul Gandhi appeared to have been hacked on Thursday.

Mr. Gandhi's account came under a similar attack on Wednesday, with a series of obscene tweets posted on the timeline.

The Congress leader has filed a police complaint in connection with the Wednesday's attack.
