Hello Nishar Ahmed, Shri Guru Teg Bahadur Khalsa College of Delhi seems to have lost its way but it's trying to recover. It has of course obtained an NAAC grading of "A" which is quite good. Besides this, in the national institutional ranking framework the college was appearing in the top 40 for quite many years before sleeping to about 70 and then recovering again quite well. These rankings are based on the overall performance which includes the staff the facilities etc. which the college provides to the students. Any recurring institution which is in the top 40 can be considered quite good. And based on this logic one can say that the post-graduation in Arts in different subjects offered by this institution is quite good. 
Here I would like to admit and say that selection of a college to seek admission in Delhi is a very tough choice.

Best wishes to you.
