'''Mir Zafarullah Khan Jamali''' ({{Lang-ur|{{Nastaliq|میر ظفراللہ خان جمالی}}}}; 1 January 1944 – 2 December 2020) was a [[Pakistan|Pakistani]] politician who served as the 15th [[prime minister of Pakistan]] from 2002 until his resignation in 2004. He was the first and only elected prime minister from [[Balochistan, Pakistan]].

Originally a supporter of the [[Pakistan Peoples Party]], Jamali emerged from the politics of Balochistan under military governor [[Rahimuddin Khan]] during the 1970s. He became a national figure as part of the government of [[Nawaz Sharif]], and was [[Chief Minister of Balochistan, Pakistan|Chief Minister]] of Balochistan for two non-consecutive terms (from June–December 1988 and November 1996 –February 1997). Although he was a senior leader in the [[Pakistan Muslim League (N)|Pakistan Muslim League]] (PML) and Sharif's confidant, relations between Jamali and Sharif cooled and Jamali joined the [[Pakistan Muslim League (Q)]] after the [[1999 Pakistani coup d'état|1999 coup]] led by General [[Pervez Musharraf]]. In the [[2002 Pakistani general elections|2002 general election]], Jamali won his bid for the office of Prime Minister after his supporters and colleagues crossed party lines to support him. On 21 November 2002 Jamali was appointed the 13th Prime Minister of Pakistan-designate. He took the oath on 23 November 2002, serving until he unexpectedly announced his resignation in 2004. He is the fifth shortest-serving democratically elected Prime Minister in the history of Pakistan.<ref name="Shortest Serving Prime Ministers of Pakistan">{{cite news |title=Who were shortest-serving Prime Ministers of Pakistan? |publisher=Pakistan, Our Stories |first=Saqib |last=Ali |url=https://www.pakistanourstories.com/shortest-serving-prime-ministers-of-pakistan-2020/}}</ref>
