Details

Tojikhon Toshmatovna Shodieva (Uzbek: Тожихон Тошматовна Шодиева, Tojixon Toshmatovna Shodiyeva, Russian: Таджихан Ташматовна Шадыева, Tadzhikhan Tashmatovna Shadyyeva; 1905 – January 1981) was a Soviet-Uzbek communist activist in the Hujum. A victim of child marriage and one of the first as well as youngest women of Fergana to publicly remove her paranja, she rose to local prominence as a leader of women's liberation, becoming an active member of the communist party and an editor of the Yangi Yo'l women's magazine. However, because of her arrest in March 1938 during the Great Purge and subsequent imprisonment at Magadan labor camp, she fell into relative obscurity. Eventually she was released and rehabilitated after the death of Stalin, resulting in her awards returned to her and her membership in the party reinstated. Later she supervised the development of a collective farm that she became chairwoman of, and after her death it was named after her in her honor.
