[edit]Badayev was born at Yuryevo in the Oryol Governorate of the Russian Empire in 1883. He joined the Bolshevik faction of the Russian Social Democratic Labour Party in 1904, and was an active member of the Metal Workers' Union from its inception in 1906.[3]
From 1912 to 1914 he was a Deputy of the Fourth State Duma.[2] In 1912–13, he also worked on the Bolshevik newspaper Pravda. In 1914, along with the other members of the Bolshevik group in the Fourth Duma (apart from the double agent Roman Malinovsky), and was deported the following year to Turkestan. He later wrote reminiscences of this period which were translated into English as The Bolsheviks in the Tsarist Duma.
Badayev returned to Petrograd after the February Revolution in 1917 and became actively involved in the city duma, and in the management of food distribution. After the Bolshevik Revolution he was appointed chairman of the Food Commissariat for the North West region of Russia.[3]

In the first half of the 1920s he worked as Deputy Chairman of the Petrograd (later the city was renamed Leningrad) gubispolkom (ispolkom of gubernija). He was a member of the Central Committee of the All-Union Communist Party from 1925 to 1951[2] – one of only a handful of members of that body to survive the Great Purge. He was Chairman of the USSR Central Consumers' Union (Tsentrosoyuz), 1930–38. From August 1937 to July 1938 he was the People's Commissar of Food Industry of the RSFSR,[2] and from 19 July 1938 to 4 March 1944 he was the Chairman of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the Russian SFSR.[2]
