In the map of Asia, we can see eight countries at southern part. Nepal, India, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Bhutan, Bangladesh, Srilanka and the Maldives. They are known as south Asian countries because they lie in the southern part of Asia.
The life of the people living in these countries is more or less the same. The government of these countries felt that the common problems could be solved by means of these seven countries met together in Dhaka , Bangladesh and formed an organization. It was called South Asian Association for Regional Co-operation (SAARC). Conferences are held from time to discuss the common problems and their solutions. The permanent secretariat is situated in Kathmandu.
SAARC has a symbol of seven pigeons held in two hands. It is very significant. The pigeon is the symbol for peace. The symbol of SAARC means that these countries want peace, co-operation and understanding among themselves.
