[edit] Removed piece

All this was way after the Khanate was disbanded, hence irrelevant to the article. Not to say that the piece incorrectly descibes what government was exactly formed, which is already covered in the Jadid article.

In the wake of riots against the World War I draft and the Russian Revolution of 1917, the Jadidist Mustafa Chokayev established the Provisional Autonomous Government of Turkestan in late 1917, as a nationalist and Muslim alternative to the Tashkent Soviet. The Bolshevik response to this competition was swift and ruthless. The Red Army breached the old city walls in February 1918, setting the city on fire and killing 18,000 inhabitants.^{[citation needed]} Chokayev escaped to France, but his partisans fled into the mountains, where, as basmachi, they continued to fight against the Red Army through the early decades of Soviet rule.

Furthermore I'm pretty sure Mustafa Chokay was involved with the Alash Orda in Semipalatinsk, not the Kokand autonomy. Sikandarji 21:24, 8 November 2005 (UTC)
