Hello @Priyanka Khare

Another option to provide separation, but without a need of using a script runner, would be using another custom field - "Select List (cascading)". It is not exactly what you are looking for but might be good enough for your usecase.

You can add any options you want, in any order to a select list, so adding Global and Regional can be done right now.  You just need to remember to re-order the list for them if any of your admins click "sort" on the options

A separator is not something Jira does.  You could add an option for ----, but that would let the users select it as a value, which you don't want.

With Script Runner, you could use a behaviour to put in a non-selectable line, or use validators to check the users don't use ----
