Progressive Youth Organization

Progressive Youth Organization

Progressive Youth Organization ("Sazman-e Jawanan-e Mutarraqi") was a revolutionary organizaion in Afghanistan. The organization emerged out of the New Democratic Current ("Jerian-e Demokratik-e Navin"), a leftist movement that had been established by Abdulrahim Mahmudi, Abdulhadi Mahmudi, Akram Yari and Seddiq Yari. The New Democratic Current founded the PYO in October 1965. PYO never made its existence or name known to the public. The group brought out the publication "Shola Jawid" ('Eternal Flame'), and its followers were generally known as "sholayes". PYO was dissolved in 1972.
