Yeah for sure !

you can select that subject as your optional but you should not select more than one subject of the same stream.

For example : In engineering No candidate is allowed to select Electrical Engineering and Mechanical Engineering or Civil Engineering even if you have opportunity to select because it will be again the same old competition..

This is why they don't allow the subjects of same stream there should be atleast one other subject which you have to select.

So along with your history of arts you can choose any other subject which is not of your stream.

I hope you understood for full examination code once visit the official website of UPSC(Union Public Service Commission)

All the best
