New Delhi, Feb 6 (IBNS): Micro-blogging site Twitter has temporarily suspended accounts of Rajya Sabh MP Swapan Dasgupta, actor Anupam Kher and BJP leader  Ram Madhav after they were hacked, media reports said.

A visit into the handle of Dasgupta will show the message: "Caution: This account is temporarily restricted You’re seeing this warning because there has been some unusual activity from this account. Do you still want to view it?."

According to media reports,  the accounts were allegedly hacked by 'Pro-Pakistan' Turkish cyber army ayyildiz tim.

Twitter said it is working to resolve the issue.

Meanwhile, speaking on the incident, Twitter said in its post: " Our teams are working to resolve an issue affecting a small number of Indian users. We will notify affected account holders directly. Reminder: do not click on links in DMs coming from unknown accounts."
