History
[edit]The academy was established in 1958.[1]
Before 1997 the Academy didn’t have a building of its own. In 1997, Chief Minister of Balochistan Akhtar Mengal, who was interested in supporting the language, provided the Academy with land and a grant to construct its own building.[1]
In 1999, the complex was officially opened. It is a three-story building in central Quetta with a library and conference hall.[1]
