Aziz ul Haq (24 January 1939 – 28 May 1972), also called Dr. Azizul Haque or Aziz-ul Haque, was a Marxist–Leninist communist activist from Pakistan and one of the notable literary icons of Pak Tea House.[1][2][3]
He was the Chairman of the Young People's Front, a left-wing political organisation.[2] He was born to a modest revolutionary Sufi Muslim family, from the ancient Mian Mir area of Lahore, Pakistan.[3] He obtained his PhD degree from the University of British Columbia in western Canada in 1966.[1]
Before his death, Haq had started crusading against the Pakistan Peoples Party, once Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto came to power and began his allegedly authoritarian rule.[2] He was killed in Lahore during Bhutto's premiership in Pakistan.[2]
