It was established on 8 December 1985 in Dhaka, Bangladesh.<\/p>\n<p>The idea of SAARC was first proposed by Bangladesh&#8217;s Prime Minister Sheikh Mujibur Rahman in 1980. The first SAARC summit was held in Dhaka in 1985. The organization&#8217;s main objectives are to promote economic growth, social progress, cultural development, and regional cooperation in South Asia.<\/p>\n<p>SAARC has been criticized for its lack of progress in achieving its objectives.
