Life

Smaghul Saduaqasov was born in Akmolinsk Oblast in 1900. His father was a mullah who taught him to read and write. He first attended a two-year Kazakh-Russian school, then his father took him to Omsk , where he graduated from an agricultural school in 1915. Here he had contact with Maghschan Schumabai and Saken Seifullin, among others . He then studied from 1916 to 1918 at the Agricultural Institute in Omsk. After the February Revolution of 1917 , he began to be politically active. During his studies in Omsk he was an active member of the Kazakh youth organization Birlik and later also a member of the board of the Kazakh youth organization Shas Asamat. He was also a member of the Russian Communist Youth Union and secretary of the Kazakh Regional Committee of the Communist Youth Union. He was also the editor of the newspaper Kedei sösi and a member of the editorial board of two newspapers in Orenburg .

At the first Soviet party congress in Kazakhstan was elected member of the Presidium of the Kazakh Central Executive Committee. In the course of the formation of the government he was first deputy people's commissar for education, from 1925 he then held the post of people's commissar for education of the Kazakh ASSR . In addition to his political activities, he continued to work actively in publishing; he was editor of the magazine Qysyl Qasaqstan (1924 to 1925) and the newspaper Jengbekschi qasaq (1925 to 1926). In his articles he repeatedly raised the question of national self-determination, as the Soviet government had already proclaimed in 1917. He also criticized the forced collectivization in Kazakhstan and the actions of the Soviet authorities in view of the resulting famine . However, his views on the political, social and economic development of the Kazakhs differed greatly from those of Filipp Goloschtschokin , the then secretary of the Kazakh Communist Party's regional committee. As a result, he was removed from his post in November 1927.

He was then sent to Moscow , where he began studying at the Institute of Transport Engineers . After completing his studies, however, he did not return to his homeland, but worked on the construction of the railway line from Moscow to Donbass . In autumn 1933 he fell ill with typhus in Voronezh . He finally died on December 16 in a Moscow hospital.
