Shahed Ali Patwary (Bengali: শাহেদ আলী পাটোয়ারী; 1899– 26 September 1958) was a Pakistani lawyer and politician. He was elected as member of East Bengal Legislative Assembly.
Early life
Patwary was born in 1899 in Aswinpur in Matlab Thana, Chandpur District, Bengal Presidency, British Raj.[1] In 1921, he completed his bachelors in philosophy from Dhaka College.[1] He did his Masters in Philosophy from the University of Dhaka in 1923. He completed a law degree and joined the Comilla District Bar in 1925 and 1926 respectively.[1]
Career
Patwary started his political career in 1929 when he joined the Krishak Praja Party then led by Sher-e-Bangla A.K. Fazlul Huq.[2] In 1937, he was elected to the Bengal Legislative Assembly.[1] He joined the revived Krishak Sramik Party in 1953.[1] In 1954, he was elected to the East Bengal Legislative Assembly.[1] In 1955, Patwary was elected as Deputy Speaker of East Bengal Legislative Assembly.[1] He joined the Awami League in 1958.[1]
Death
On 23 September 1958, Patwary announced that an Awami League motion, petition by Dewan Mahbub Ali, declaring the speaker Abdul Hakeem to be of 'unsound mind' had been carried. This led to an intense debate in the East Pakistan Assembly which turned violent. The members fought one another until one of them threw a paper weight which struck deputy speaker Shahid Ali in the head, severely injuring him. He died from his wounds 2 days later. [3][1]
