N2  - South Asia is strategically located with amazing topography, enormous natural resources, extremely hardworking human resources, and is home to some of the oldest religions and civilizations. Yet despite all the blessed features, the nearly two billion people are left behind on every account of development due to unnecessary wars and conflicts. The present state of this sub-region is primarily a result of the enduring rivalry between India and Pakistan that spans over seven decades and four decades of continued wars and conflicts in Afghanistan. Therefore, it is necessary to understand that South Asia Needs Hybrid Peace more than ever before to avoid catastrophic outcomes of another major conflict between nuclear neighbours and the resurgence of terrorism around the globe.
