The Buledi or Buleidi () is a Balochi-speaking tribe in the Pakistani provinces of Sindh and Balochistan. The tribe derives its name from the Buleida valley in Kech.
History
Buledi descend from a certain Bu Said or Buledi, whom they claim to have come in the 18th century from Oman in the southern Arabian Peninsula. However, according to the Italian anthropologist it is possible that in reality the Buledi tribe came from the Helmand region of Afghanistan. For a time, Buledi ruled Kech with the support of Nader Shah of Persia. However, they lost Kech to the Gichkis after a power struggle in the 18th century, and whole eastern Makran came under control of the Gichkis.
