Bizenjo is a Brahui speaking clan in Balochistan, Pakistan. It was originally one of the four Jat (Jadgal) tribes inhabiting the region; the other three being Zehri, Mengal and Sajdi.[1][2][3] Though the Bizenjo in eastern Makran are Brahuis by origin, they have been Baluchified in language and customs due to a prolonged residence in Makran.[4]
