Rajkot civic body’s GIS website hit by cyber attack, over 400 GB data feared stolen

Posted on June 4, 2025 by Dissent

Adan Khan reports:

A suspected cyber attack has targeted the website of the Rajkot Municipal Corporation (RMC), triggering concerns over the possible theft of sensitive civic data. The breach came to light recently, sparking fear among residents, as officials suspect that over 400 GB of data may have been compromised.

According to sources, the stolen data could include key information about government buildings and public infrastructure such as schools, hospitals, bridges, and offices in Rajkot. In response, the RMC administration swiftly alerted the cyber security team of Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited (BSNL).

The BSNL team immediately isolated the GIS (Geographic Information System) website from the network and launched a detailed investigation into the breach. Officials are currently working to determine the extent of the data leak and identify the vulnerabilities that allowed the attack to take place.
