4. INTRODUCTION
The idea of International Government to
ensure peace and human betterment is very old.
It can be traced as far back as the ancient world.
It is because the element of conflict is as old as
the inception of this world. With the element of
conflict, originated the idea for inventing a device
to check the conflia.
The regional organizations formed for
security purpose deprive the member states of
independence of action in their armed forces.
Our study will, however be limited to the
analysis of the regional organization SAARC.

5. SAARC
It was 1984 that the South Asian
Association for Regional Co-operation
SAARC come in to existence. In
December 1985, the heads of states
and governments of seven south
countries(Bangladesh, Bhutan, India,
Ml, Pakistan and Srilanka) held a
summit at Dhaka.

6. The declaration for the creation of SAARC laid
down the following objectives of the Association.
i. Promotion of welfare of people.
ii. Improvement in the quality of life of
people.
iii. Acceleration of economic growth.
iv. Promotion of collective self reliance.
v. Promotion of mutual trust and
understanding.
vi. Promotion of collaboration with other
developing countries and scientific fields.

7. The declaration stated that the heads of the
state or government shall meet annually and
a council of ministers consisting of foreign
ministers of the member states shall be
constituted to:
i. Formulate policies
ii. Review the progress of co-
operation
iii. Establish additional mechanism
and
iv. Decide on matters general interest

8. CONCLUSION
The SAARC is the most populous
regional association the world has known.
The SAARC, by its very nature, is a loose
organization with extremely limited
objectives. Regional co-operation requires
an approach of mutual accommodation and
adjustment. That is what should be
displayed by all member states if it is to
survive.
