Some said the Mumbai blasts happened on Ajmal Kasab's birthday. Some disagreed. But the discontent remains among celebs and commoners alike regarding the prolonged Kasab trial.

1x1 polls
The nation needs a sense of closure to a tragedy of the magnitude of 26/11."
In the context of July 13's blasts in Mumbai, does Bhatt think that India has been lazy in punishing terrorists, especially when so much of proof is available on camera against Kasab? Says Bhatt, "The remnants of the former LET with elements of Huji which may be the ones who orchestrated this attack need to be flushed out urgently. The due process of law has to be followed. Fast track the process by all means. You can't bypass it."
