Toilers Organisation of Afghanistan

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Toilers Organisation of Afghanistan (Persian: سازمان زحمتکشان افغانستان, abbreviated سزا, transliterated Sazman-e Zahmatkashan-e Afghanistan, 'SeZA') was a leftwing group in Afghanistan. It was formed by PDPA dissidents, which had broken away from the PDPA in the late 1970s.^[1] The leader of the organisation was Hamdullah Gran. The party was mainly based amongst Pashtuns.^[2]

In November 1987 SeZA was able to assume overground activities and joined the PDPA-led Union of Left-Democratic Parties. However, a dissident SeZA faction, led by Zaman Gul Dehati, remained underground. This grouping would later become the Alliance of Peace and Progress Fighters of Afghanistan.^[1]
