Bugti (Balochi: بُگٹی; bugṭī) is a prominent Baloch tribe found in eastern Balochistan, Pakistan. Most of the members of the Bugti tribe live in the mountainous Dera Bugti region of Pakistan.[1] The bugti are divided into the Rahija, Kalpar, Nothani, Perozani, Masori, Mondarani and Marhita sub-tribes.[1] Their neighbours to the north are the Marri, who were the Bugti's traditional enemies.[3]
The current chief of the Bugti tribe is Mir Sarfraz Bugti, the Chief Minister of Balochistan. He was elected as the eight chief of the Bugti tribe on 29 December 2025.[4][5]
