Its indeed incredeble to see mumbai celebrating with fireworks when Court declared Ajmal Qasab guilty od the 26/11 Mumbai attacks. Unfortunately it has taken more than a year for the court to declare him guilty and why has it taken so long is a question which remains unanswered, or probably its a question never asked.It is such a pain to see a terrorist like Qasab being treated like a celebrrity. The newspaper quoting what he sain when he was brought to the court, or he demanding for newspapers or wanting biryani for lunch. Unfortunately we keep forgeting that he is a terrorist who has killed our innocent country men, he is in the eyes of the citizens of this country a person who does not have a right to be alive (please note I have clearly said
in the eyes of the citizens of this country and not
in the eyes of the country which may also include the countrys government, political leaders and the amazing justice system prevailing here) forget what he wants to read or what he wants to eat.
The Justice system here will decide on Qasabs fate today, but the question is why was he kept alive for such a long time and what proofs were we waiting to see. Whatever decision will be taken on Qasabs fate tommorow is the next question, but the government of this country has hurt the feelings of the people who have laid their lives (probably the government thinks that even the feelings of those who laid their lives are dead) , of their families, of the country men and the government is absolutely defeted in winning the trust of the subjects of the nation when it comes to Ajmal Qasab.
The article to the left is from pune Mirror (Dated:04/05/2010) and hosts the point of view of two of the neighbours of Ashok Kamte. Read what Lt Col S S Hasabnis (Rtd) has got to say.
When Pakistan has behaved this way with our soldiers who have not even fought for wrong causes but only for something that was always ours, why have we made Qasab a celebrity. India will never behave even with its enemies the way Pakistan has behaved, I thing that is a difference which should and will always remain between the two nations, but surely the Government has gone an extra mile in Qasabs case. And like Lt Col S S Hasabnis says yes we all feel sorry for the government which is so weak.
Whether it is Qasab or the maoist attack killing more than 70 CRPF soldiers,(Dantewada in Chhattisgarh on 06th April 2010) we dont need a home minister who accepts moral responsibility and resigns but we need a home minister who will take action against those who are responsible for this.
If Qasab is kept alive after this and a few years down the line if an Indian Aircraft get Hijacked keeping the passangers hostage like the IC-814 on 24th December 1999 in Kandhar, demanding the release of Ajmal Qasab it sould not come out as a surprise for the Indians and the government should rather be proud that the planning in this sector is atleast successful.

you are talking about soldiers , i give examples of pakistanis who cross borders accidently and caught by the army , they are tortured so much mentally , when they come back they are half mental. every year when such prisoners who have crossed borders mistakenly are exchanged between the both countries , i see half mad pakistanis coming from indian side. i think its the time when we should stop this blame game and take some responsibility and talk like humans. any prisoner , who is not proved a criminal should be treated like a good human being...... hate crimes , dont hate humans and humanity.
