Abstract
The presence of ISIS in South Asia remains a matter of debate and concern for both the
statesmen and civil society at large. It‟s physical, virtual, social, and magnitude of influence is at
times totally rejected or overblown by the certain section of intelligentsia and policy makers. So
far, South Asian states have failed to voice a singular recognition and express desire for regional
collective response to this dangerous trend. The paper looks into the patterns of ISIS presence in
major South Asian states and analyze the policy response for academic clarity and discussion
respectively. Parallel to this, how regional collective response can be harnessed following
traditional tools of diplomacy and dialogue is also highlighted.
