Life

Sabir Kamalow was born in 1910 in Tashkent , which at that time still belonged to the Russian Empire . He came from a working-class family and initially worked as a construction worker and casual worker. Eventually he joined the Communist Party in what is now Soviet Uzbekistan. From 1930 to 1936 he worked in the Komsomol , the youth organization of the CPSU . From 1933 to 1936 he was also chairman of the regional committee of the Komsomol in the Karakalpakstan region and began studying at the Tashkent Institute for Marxism-Leninism. From 1941 to 1946 he was the first secretary of the regional committee of the Communist Party in Karakalpakstan, where he had previously headed the Komsomol a few years earlier. In the hierarchy of the Communist Party Kamalow rose as a result. In 1946 he became a member of the Supreme Soviet of the USSR and remained there until 1962. From December 28, 1957 to March 15, 1959, he was finally secretary of the Central Committee of the CP in Uzbekistan, de facto head of government of the Uzbek Soviet Republic. In 1959, however, he was removed from this office on the initiative of Nikita Khrushchev . Kamalov then only held a few minor political functions in Uzbekistan and finally died on June 6, 1990 in his native city of Tashkent.
