Social media

The app used by the terrorists in the Delhi blasts is Telegram. According to media reports, the terrorists planned the attack using this app. This app actually has a special feature that the terrorists used to ensure that no one else could read their chats.

Let's find out which feature of the Telegram app was used. According to media reports, terrorists prefer these apps because their conversations remain completely hidden. This is due to their end-to-end encryption.

How the Encryption Feature Works

The Telegram app has a special feature called the encryption. This feature is designed for conversations between two people. This feature allows encrypted messages to be sent between two devices. These messages remain confined to those devices and cannot be forwarded.

Messages Get Deleted

Notably, screenshots of a conversation between two people are also reported. Messages sent through the Secret Chat feature are automatically deleted after a certain period of time. The Secret Chat feature can only be used between two devices. Group chats are not permitted, nor can Secret Chat messages be forwarded.

What Experts Say

Experts believe that these apps are free and easy to download. Besides Telegram, there are many other apps available in the market that are readily available. If one app is shut down or the government bans another, people immediately switch to another app. The biggest reason is that the servers of apps like Telegram are not located in India, making it difficult to extract their data.
