"Zhas Tulpar" (KAZ. "Zhas Tulpar") is an informal Association of Kazakh youth who studied at Moscow universities. Existed in the 1960-ies. It positioned itself as a cultural and educational society that promotes the Kazakh culture. However, the political views of a number of participants were considered unacceptable from the point of view of Soviet society.

Formation
Society "Zhas Tulpar" was founded on November 7, 1963 at the meeting of Moscow Kazakh students. Organized by Murat Auezov, Altai Kadyrzhanov and Bolathan Tayzhanov. Members of the society were future scientists Makash Tatimov, Murat Aitkhozhin, future pop singer Sarah Tynyshtygulova and other famous personalities.

The aim of the society was to promote Kazakh culture, art and literature, as well as to assist Kazakh students in the study of the Russian language and technical disciplines.

The work of the organization was divided into sectors: lecturing, scientific and educational, cultural and entertainment. Within the lecture sector students collected and studied materials on the history, demography and culture of the Kazakh people. In the scientific and educational sector carried out direct work with students-Kazakhs. The cultural and entertainment sector held football competitions, organized Hiking trips and various cultural events.

Creative teams of the organization visited places of residence of Kazakhs in Omsk region, remote areas of Dzhambul, South Kazakhstan, Kzyl-Orda, Tselinograd regions. Branches of the Association appeared in Pavlodar, Karaganda, Tselinograd, Semipalatinsk, Chimkent, Alma-ATA and even outside the Kazakh SSR (Leningrad, Kiev, Odessa, Kharkov, Riga). Members of "Zhas Tulpar" S. Eleusizov and M. Baltabayev took part in the organization of the VIA, based on the Kazakh musical culture ("Gulder", "Aigul", "Alatau", etc.).

Crisis
In early February 1966, the initiative group "gasoperated" arrived in Almaty for a meeting with Kazakh students. The meeting was held on February 8-9 in the premises of the Union of writers of Kazakhstan. According to the archival source, prominent Kazakh writers came to her, but they soon left the event, "feeling that the meeting is not quite healthy."

In addition, it was 8-9 February, the day of the Congress "Zhas Tulpar", about a hundred students of the Alma-ATA medical Institute did not come to classes in protest against teaching in Russian.

Soon they began to appear alarmed by the message of the Central Committee of the Komsomol of Kazakhstan, which was passed on the content of the statements of members of the "Zhas Tulpar»: Tayzhanov (MGIMO) proposed a leadership election center, take a Charter of "Zhas Tulpar", record it in one of the paragraphs: "In deeds, thoughts, actions of every human motive should be the principle of nationality» The main idea of the report of T. Auezov is expressed in the following: "it is Enough to be only an Amateur group. The organization must have its own political platform." Even such statements became known that the national and cultural development from the point of view of the organization should lead to the independence of Kazakhstan from the USSR.

On February 20 Bureau of the Central Committee of youth of Kazakhstan, and on March 15, the Bureau of the Komsomol Central Committee discussed the "political immaturity" of the members of the "Zhas Tulpar". In addition, the activities of the organization were linked to the appearance of nationalist leaflets and anonymous letters.

Nevertheless, the organization managed to hold one more meeting of representatives of all branches, which took place on may 5-6 in Alma-ATA.

Liquidation of the movement and the fate of the participants
9 June 1966, the first Secretary of the Central Committee of LKSM of Kazakhstan was Uzbekali Dzhanibekov shall submit to the Committee a note on the explanatory interviews carried out with the tip of the "Zhas Tulpar" At these meetings, M. Auezov and other participants agreed with the comments and expressed their readiness to stop their activities.

According to some reports, soon after the dissolution of the organization, its members were persecuted by law enforcement agencies, but thanks to the intervention of the first Secretary of the Central Committee of the Kazakh SSR Dinmukhamed Kunayev, the persecution quickly stopped.

After graduation, many former members of "Zhas Tulpar" continued to engage in social work and took part in various cultural events. Among them are poetry Day in Alma-ATA (1970), a recital dedicated to the memory of the poet Makhambet Utemisov (1971), V international conference of writers of Asia and Africa (1973).
