Try

<VirtualHost *>
         ServerName mywebsite.org
        DocumentRoot /home/namit/public_html/
        <Directory />
                Options FollowSymLinks
                AllowOverride None
        </Directory>

        LogLevel warn
<Directory /home/namit/cgi_bin>
    Options ExecCGI -Indexes
    AllowOverride None
    AllowOverride Indexes AuthConfig Limit FileInfo
    Order allow,deny
    Allow from all
    <Files ~ "^\.ht">
    Deny from all
    </Files>
</Directory>

ScriptAlias  /cgi-bin/ /home/namit/cgi_bin/
AddHandler cgi-script .cgi
AddHandler cgi-script .pl
</VirtualHost>

Of course, you must create /home/namit/cgi_bin before. Restart Apache, and put your CGI scripts into /home/namit/cgi_bin.
