Hackers shut down telecom operator Mahanagar Telephone Nigam Limited s website

 Hacking group Anonymous says it has attacked the website of a state-owned telecommunications provider in India for allegedly censoring content on the Internet. 

The corporate website of Mahanagar Telephone Nigam Limited, which caters to the major Indian cities of New Delhi and Mumbai, has been down for at least six hours Wednesday. 

A post on Anonymous India's blog says it attacked the site because the company had blocked several file sharing websites. 
A senior company official, M.K. Purohit, denied the website had been attacked. He said individual city websites for the company were working and that the company did not use the corporate site very often. 

But an online search for the domain's owner showsMTNL as the registrant until February 2014.
