South Asia Analysis Group is a non profit  non commercial think tank.  

The objective of the group is to advance strategic analysis and contribute to the expansion of knowledge of Indian and International security and promote public understanding. In so doing, the SAAG seeks to address the decision makers,  strategic planners, academics and the media in South Asia and the world at large.  

The group holds the concept of strategy in its broadest meaning-including mobilization and application of all resources to understand national and international security.  

The articles in this site are provided by scholars with many years of experience in political and strategic analysis.  

The aim of the group is not to compete with Governments, Academics, NGOs or other institutions dealing with strategic analysis and national security but to provide another point of view for the decision makers and other national/international think tanks.  

ABOUT THE WEB SITE

One Academic who visits the site regularly said that the "site is simple and effective." The site is indeed simple in design and it is easy to get familiar in a few minutes.   It does not have any fanciful stuff but has adequate features for serious research scholars to go directly into the paper or subject he or she needs to know.

NAVIGATION

Starting from the home page, the hyperlinked "About us" gives the objectives of the South Asia Analysis group and what it stands for.

Next is the feature "Latest" which normally has papers and updates uploaded in the last two weeks.

The boxes " Updates" and "Papers" have a complete list of all the  Updates in one group and Papers in another group, hyper linked to the respective articles.   By this we mean that any double click on the list would take the researcher to the particular article directly.
