[PAR] [TLE] Khalq [SEP] Khalq ("Masses" or "People" in Pashto) was a faction of the People's Democratic Party of Afghanistan.  Its historical leaders were Presidents Nur Muhammad Taraki and Hafizullah Amin.  It was also the name of the leftist newspaper produced by the same movement.  It was supported by the USSR and was formed in 1965 when the PDPA was born.  The Khalqist wing of the party was made up primarily of Pashtuns from non-elite classes.  However, their Marxism was often a vehicle for tribal resentments.  Bitter resentment between the Khalq and Parcham factions eventually led to the failure of the Democratic Republic of Afghanistan that was formed as a result of the Saur Revolution.  It was also responsible for the radical reforms that encouraged the rebellion of the religious segments present in the Afghan society, which led to the creation of the Mujahideen and, eventually, to the Soviet military intervention in December 1979. [PAR] [TLE] Nur Muhammad Taraki [SEP] Nur Muhammad Taraki (15 July 1917 – 8 or 9 October 1979) was an Afghan politician and statesman during the Cold War.  Taraki was born near Kabul and educated at Kabul University, after which he started his political career as a journalist.  He later became one of the founding members of the People's Democratic Party of Afghanistan (PDPA) and was elected as the party's general secretary at its first congress.  He ran as a candidate in the 1965 Afghan parliamentary election but failed to secure himself a seat.  In 1966 he published the first issue of "Khalq", a party newspaper, but it was closed down shortly afterwards by the Afghan Government.  The assassination of Mir Akbar Khyber led Taraki, along with Hafizullah Amin (the organiser of the revolution) and Babrak Karmal, to initiate the Saur Revolution and establish the communist Democratic Republic of Afghanistan.
