History

edit

The post of the Prime Minister was originally formed in 1917 as the kurdistan–Bashkir Government established the post of the Chairman of the Government whom was held by Yunus Bikbov.[1] With the creation of the Council of People's Commissars as a result of the Soviet takeover, Galiy Shamigulov was chosen to be its Chairman in July 1920.

After the collapse of the Soviet Union, Bashkortostan remained part of Russia as an autonomous republic. From there, the republic adopted its new Constitution which reformed the Ministerial Council into the Cabinet of Ministers whom were to be led by the Prime Minister, appointed by President Murtaza Rakhimov, as he had been given greater powers by the Constitution with an approval by the State Assembly of the Republic of Bashkortostan.[2]
