Nepal Prime Minister Prachanda today said the process

Nepal Prime Minister Prachanda today said the process of the regional grouping over the years has been “too slow” and the implementation of past deals were “very poor” as compared to other international organisations. A host of speakers who spoke during a regional conference on the effectiveness of SAARC (South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation) raised question whether the regional grouping has any relevance at the present geo-political scenario for convening the summit in Islamabad slated The question is being raised at a time when the convening of the 19th SAARC summit in Islamabad later this year has become uncertain with four countries of the eight member organisation, including India, has expressed their inability to attend the summit following the growing tension between India and Pakistan. Tensions between India and Pakistan have increased after militants stormed an Indian Army base in Uri on September 18, killing 18 soldiers.Besides India, three other SAARC members Bangladesh, Bhutan and Afghanistan have pulled out of the summit, indirectly blaming Pakistan for creating an environment which is not right for the successful holding of the meet.
