==Controversy==
An investigation by [[The Wire (India)|The Wire]] allegedly found that Persistent Systems was involved in the production and management of [[Tek Fog]], a software used by the BJP to manage [[Astroturfing|inauthentic accounts]] en masse on social media, and [[Black hat (computer security)|hijack]] WhatsApp accounts to message propaganda to contacts while impersonating the account owner. According to the Wire, an internal source within Persistent System confirmed the involvement of the company, with 17,000 assets connected to Tek Fog developed by the company.
