Bizenjo

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Bizenjo is an ethnic Brahui tribe inhabiting Balochistan, Pakistan.[1][2] According to the official list by Mir Ahmad Yar, the last Khan of Kalat, Zehri was originally one of the Jatt tribes inhabiting the region; the other being Zehri and Mengal.[3][4] Though the Bizenjo in eastern Makran are Brahui by origin, they have been Baluchified in language and customs due to a prolonged residence in Makran.[5]
