            Persian was a part of the curriculum of Urdu from the inception of the Institute since 1885. However, Persian language was established as a separate subject Department from Urdu the on 26th July, 1999 by Government order. This was a landmark in the history of the Institute, as Persian is a classical language of international standing. At present, Dr. Khaleda Nigar is the Head of the Department, who also has several publications to her credit, like "RABIA QAZADARI, The First Poetess Of Persian", in the esteemed journal "MARIF" in October, 2000. As the H.O.D., Dr. Nigar has established linkage with the Director of Cultural House I.R. Iran, New Delhi.
