Users of social media have been pointing out that it might be a hacking activity or a usual account break-in, but there has been no update from the education department addressing the probable phishing activity.

Naya Daur has fact-checked and the account still seems to be in place.
Recently, Waqar Younis, former Captain of the Pakistan cricket team, was also pulled into the social media highlights for liking a pornographic video from his Twitter account.
He later made a video to apologise and confirm with the audience that it was a hacking activity that took place from his account. He further announced that he will be quitting social media.
"Today I have to say with deep regret that when I woke up this morning, someone hacked my Twitter and liked an obscene video from my account," Waqar said.
After his fans aggressively called him out for the obscene video, he started trending on Twitter and said in the last video: "For me, my family is more important and you will not see on social media after today. I'm sorry if anyone is hurt by this."
