Abul Hafez Mohsen Uddin Ahmad, commonly known as Dudu Miyan, was a Bangladeshi religious leader and politician. He was member of the 4th National Assembly of Pakistan as a representative from the former Pakistani province of East Pakistan (present-day Bangladesh).[1]
Personal life
[edit]Miyan was born in 1913.[2] He was descendant of Haji Shariatullah, the founder of Faraizi movement in British Bengal. He was one of two sons of Nizam-e-Islam Party politician, Awa Khaled Rashid Uddin Ahmad and Mst. Saleha Begum, a member of the Dhaka Nawab family.[3] He was a relative of the politician Yusuf Ali Chowdhury.[2]
Miyan died on 6 August 1997 at his residence in Bahadurpur village of Shibpur Upazila, Madaripur District, Bangladesh.[2] Two days later, he was buried at his family graveyard located in his village.[4]
Career
[edit]Miyan became the leader of Farazi movement after his father.[3]
In 1954 East Bengal Legislative Assembly election, Miyan was elected as a member of the East Bengal Legislative Assembly in Madaripur North-West Muslim from United Front.[5]
In 1965 Pakistani general election, he was elected as a member of the National Assembly of Pakistan in NE-35 Faridpur-II as a member of the National Democratic Front.[6]
On 4 January 1969, he became the president of the East Pakistan branch of Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam.[7]
In 1971, during the Bangladesh Liberation War, he was a member of East Pakistan Central Peace Committee[8] and opposed the independence of Bangladesh.[9] In 13 October 1971, he resigned from the position of president of East Pakistan branch of Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam for alleged health reasons. However, the real reason was disagreements with other members of the party.[10]
