Nawab Muhammad Aslam Raisani (born 5 July 1955 in
Sarawan,
Balochistan) was the
Chief Minister of Balochistan from 9 April 2008 till 14 January 2013. He was sacked by the
Prime Minister of Pakistan by imposing Governor Rule after the
January 2013 Pakistan bombings. He is also the chief of the Raisani tribe of the Sarawan area, succeeding late Nawab Ghound Baksh Raisani as the eldest son. The Raisani tribe is one of the most politically influential tribes in Balochistan, the largest province of Pakistan by area. On Thursday 1 November 2012, media reports claimed that Raisani party's membership had been cancelled by People's Party
Kalat Division for continually violating party policies. However, he denied these reports and said that his party membership had not been cancelled.
