The Communist Party of Kazakhstan (QKP; Kazakh: Қазақстан Коммунистік партиясы, Qazaqstan Kommýnıstik Partııasy; Russian: Коммунистическая партия Казахстана) was the ruling and sole legal political party in the Kazakh SSR.[1]

Origin

The Communist Party of Kazakhstan was founded 1936, when Kazakhstan was granted a Union Republic status within the Soviet Union. The Communist Party of Kazakhstan had been a branch of Communist Party of the Soviet Union (CPSU) until the dissolution of the Soviet Union.

Post-Soviet restructuring

The 18th Congress of the Communist Party of Kazakhstan held on 7 September 1991 took a decision to rename the Communist Party as the Socialist Party and split from CPSU.[2] Nursultan Nazarbayev, the party chairman, resigned when he became the first President of Kazakhstan in 1991. Dissatisfied members of the old Communist Party recreated the Communist Party of Kazakhstan in October 1991 at the 19th Congress of the party.
