Today I went to check my voter roll entry at Election Commission of Maharashtra. However, Mozilla Firefox gave following warning.

I really wonder why our government can not run a simple web site securely? Is this a way by which our “talented” government servants sabotaging information technology for e-governance and Right to Information Act? Or am I reading too much from this incidence?

Isn’t it quite an co-incidence that this happened when the new CEC is appointed?
