But despite ‎that the tradition of Ghalib Shanasi ( Cognizance of Ghalib ) among the ‎literary scholars of Persia started too late, near about, in 1950. Though ‎Ghalib was appreciated in Persian literary intellectuals but this ‎appreciation is not sufficient as compare to the discernment of Ghalib ‎among the literary craftsmen of Urdu. Therefore, paradoxically, Ghalib ‎felt pride in expressing himself in Persian and he thought himself as the ‎literary figure of that language. Among the Persian literary figures, thesis ‎of Dr. Muhammad Muqaddam Alvi, Dr. Shafei Kadkani, Professor ‎Estelami, Dr. Raza Mustafa and Yahya Taliban regarding Ghalib ‎Shanasi (Cognizance of Ghalib). The research work and criticism of ‎Muhammad Hassan Jairi, Sayed Ghulam Akbar Naqvi and Muhammad ‎Ali Farjaad etc., regarding Ghalib Shanasi ( Ghalib cognizance ) are ‎worthy to be acknowledged. Though they compensate Persian's lack of ‎Ghalib Shanasi (Ghalib Cognizance), yet more is required to be done‏.</p
