Congress leader Digvijaya Singh on Thursday said the government should show "similar commitment" in all cases of terror as it showed in the case of 1993 Mumbai blasts convict Yakub Memon.

"I hope similar commitment of government and judiciary would be shown in all cases of terror irrespective of their caste, creed and religion," he said in a tweet following Memon's execution in Nagpur prison.

Yakub Memon was hanged to death early Thursday.
