Peljidiin Genden was a politician in the Mongolian People's Republic.
Prime Minister[edit | edit source]
New Course[edit | edit source]
The Mongolian People's Revolutionary Party adopted the New Course in 1932 to allow peasants forced into collective farms to leave if they wanted as a response to ultra-leftist errors in the previous years. As Prime Minister, Genden distorted this decision and dissolved voluntary peasant cooperatives.[1]:337
Purge[edit | edit source]
Genden's anti-party group tried to undermine the alliance between Mongolia and the Soviet Union and slandered innocent people in the Lkhümbe affair. A plenary meeting of the Central Committee in 1936 exposed Genden's opportunist activities.[1]:347–8
