The scourge of terrorism has for long afflicted South Asia causing extensive social
disharmony. Since terrorism poses a serious threat to peace and cooperation as well as
friendly and good neighborly relations, cooperative security is must in this region. The
transnational character of terrorism erodes external-internal security distinctions. It
requires a combination of unilateral, bilateral and multilateral approaches. Recognizing the
need of region wide cooperation against all forms and manifestations of terrorism is
becoming the most vital strategy of regional security. In its response SAARC can provide a
rock solid platform for multilateral approaches to the regional fight against
terrorism.
In this backdrop, PSC takes steps to strengthen SAARC police capabilities through organizing
a tailor made training that will work on the security needs of SAARC member countries. It is

countries.
