The functions of the OGPU (the [[secret police]] organization) were transferred to the NKVD in 1934, giving it a monopoly over law enforcement activities that lasted until the end of [[World War II]].

The NKVD is known for its role in political repression and for carrying out the Great Purge under [[Joseph Stalin]].

The NKVD undertook mass extrajudicial executions of untold numbers of citizens, and conceived, populated and administered the Gulag system of [[concentration camp]]s. Their agents were responsible for the repression of the wealthier peasantry, as well as the mass deportations, [[ethnic cleansing]], and even [[genocide]] of entire nationalities to uninhabited regions of the country. They oversaw the protection of Soviet borders and espionage (which included political assassinations), and enforced Soviet policy in communist movements and puppet governments in other countries, most notably the repression and massacres in Poland. | The NKVD undertook mass extrajudicial executions of untold numbers of citizens, and conceived, populated and administered the Gulag system of [[concentration camp]]s.
