Russia's black history hidden in 'Gulag'

The black history of Russia hidden in trending ‘Gulag’ has many true incidents of political oppression and atrocities in many countries of the world, which the soul trembles. A story of such atrocities is related to the Soviet Russia. In 1919, the Soviet Union began a system of correctional labor camps, called Gulag. Under Gulag, the emphasis was on maximum physical labor of prisoners in the Internal Ministry of the Police and the Soviet Union. At the time, most prisoners in the Soviet Union were innocent and were closed for a variety of political reasons. Political prisoners living in those prisons have been tortured. Along with the acquisition of their wages, tortures were also given. This system of closing political opponents and finishing them increased rapidly and by the 1920s the number of prisoners reached 10 lakhs. From 1930 to 1953, approximately 1.4 crore in Gulag camps and 1.5 million prisoners held in Gulag colonies were died there. This system has improved after Stalin’s death. There was a beginning to eliminate the Gulag system. Political and non -political prisoners were captured for a maximum of five years. Nikita Khrushchev was elected to the first secretary here, which released the prisoners on a large scale. On January 25, 1960, this system was completely resolved and the Gulag system was officially abolished. Click here Life & Style Click for more stories Click here
