Millet Mejlisi

In order to achieve this goal, the Commission for Implementation of the Idel-Ural State was established in January 1918.

It consisted of about 110 members which were divided into 2 factions: "Türkiysilər", supporters of national-cultural autonomy (Sadri Mäqsudi, Äxmäthadi Mäqsudi, Ğayaz İsxaqi, Zakir Qadıyri, Ğömär Tereğolof and others), and "Tupraqçılar", supporters of territorial autonomy (İlyas Alkin, Hadi Atlasi, Ğalimcan İbrahimof, Sələxetdin Aðnagulof, Ğäbdelbari Battal, Sälimgerey Jantörin, Ğalimcan Şäräf and others).

Another twenty people were elected but did not participate in the meetings, among them Mullanur Waxitof, Möxetdin Qorbanğälief, Rizaetdin Faxretdin, Xädiçä Yamaşeva (Tanaçeva).

[2][3] Millät Mäclese's sessions were held at a house that belonged to Sämiğulla Şämğulof, a merchant, at the corner of Aleksandrovskaya (Aliksandırski)[4] and Malaya Kazanskaya streets.

[1] Also, there were plans to move Millät Mäclese to Qazan, namely to Ğabdulla Säğdief's house at Yekaterininskaya (Yıkatirinski) Street.
