Objectives :
South Asia is one of the great cradles of civilization in the world. It has been the theatre of great conflicts and wars too. The scars of partition have been haunting the region ever since the withdrawal of the British. However following the initiative of the late General Zia-ul-Rahman of Bangladesh an arrangement has been hammered out for regional co-operation in South Asia. Thus came into existence the SAARC.
Even though SAARC is moving on a slow pace it has contributed towards greater understanding among the people of South Asia. For furthering of understanding among the people of the region, academic centers of South Asian Studies are required to be established and networked in various Universities in different countries of the region. Similarly, for dissemination of knowledge as also to promote serious research in all aspects of South Asia an inter-disciplinary Journal is proposed from Pondicherry University.
Specific objectives of the Journal is to publish original empirical research and theoretical studies on religion, ethnicity, bi-lateral and multi-lateral relations, trade and economic relations, gender and development studies, civil society movements and studies on democracy, problems of marginalized sections, cross border terrorism and violation of human rights, ecology and environment, issues in governance at the local, national and regional levels.

An abstract of the paper in about 150 words must accompany the papers. The text shall be in font size 12 in Times New Roman in Double Space. The length of the research papers should be between 5000 to 7000 words. Short notes, perspectives and lengthy papers will be published if the content justifies their publication. Notes should be placed at the end of the text and their location in the text marked by superscript Arabic Numerals. References should be cited within the text in parenthesis. Bibliography should be placed at the end of the text. All articles will be, as a rule, referred to experts in the subject concerned. Those recommended for publication will be published after appropriate editing.
