Salavatov graduated from a pedagogical institute in Baku in 1927. In 1941 he went to the front as a volunteer and was killed in battle. He started writing poetry while still an adolescent. In 1917 he wrote the poems “To a Blacksmith” and “From a Blacksmith,” in which he created an image of a toiling man. A collection of his early works is entitled The First Part (1925); this was the first book of Soviet Kumyk literature. In 1930 A Collection of Verses was published, which reflected the new reality.
