Across the world, countries are increasingly turning to multilateral blocs to collectively resolve disputes and foster cooperation and engagement across borders. Sadly, South Asia is behind the curve. Saarc remains a toothless, ineffectual entity. This is due to the tensions between India and Pakistan.
The Modi government in India is bent on isolating Pakistan on the international stage and, as a result, is crippling Saarc. This policy will come back to bite India by impeding the improvement of economic and political ties in the region.
