Punishment to Kasab

There was an euphoria and celebration all around when "death" sentence awarded to Kasab. The criminal justice system in India is strong enough to play its role and punish the convict. But what is the cause of celebration? Happiness?

In my opinion ..nothing. Of course Kasab will be subject to gallows after passing through the due course of safeguards available to him.

The moot point is who is guility. Whether Kasab or his mentors? Kasab was a mere pawn, like an instrument used to execute a sordid plan. So even if we are able to destroy one instrument, whether we have been able to curb effectively those played the role in carving out such a huge massacre is the biggest challenge.

Therefore, while I am not advocating leniency to Kasab, I am saying punish those who are responsible for creating havoc in Mumbai.

I think best way is to make our country more and more economic super power. We have largest working and most intelligent population. Our top class brain is serving America for a few hundreds of dollars. Bring them here. Use their brain power. Let us create more and more intellectual assets. The physical asset will follow. Military and armed forces will be automatic strong once we get the prosperity. Nobody will be able to look at us with an ulterior motive.

Let us not buckle. We have to firm and determind. Those are creating trouble in India, will be responsible for their own ruin. This is exactly what we see happening in our neighbouring country where no day is free from blast.

It is rightly said do not expect a better crop if your seeds are week. You will reap what you sow.

agree..Kasab came here knowing that he is going to die..we have already awarded two years life to him (and may be more) which he does not deserve..there is nothing to celebrate about his death sentence..he will be pronounced as Martyr and more Kasabs will be produced..while economic growth can solve the problem..more important will be the intent and of the people at the helm of the affairs i.e., politicians, business people and also the ordinary citizens to work towards the cause of the country which is MISSING..
