Tribes and Chiefs
The Bugti Nawab is the supreme leader of the whole Bugti tribe. The Chiefs of sub-tribes of the Bugti are throned by the Nawab upon the formal request of that sub-tribe in the event of death, paralysis or simply the loss of majority of support from and within that particular sub-tribe. The Chieftains of sub-tribes are also known as Waderas in Baluchi. They are throned from among other possible candidates in the family.

Famous quotes containing the words tribes and/or chiefs:
“That those tribes [the Sac and Fox Indians] cannot exist surrounded by our settlements and in continual contact with our citizens is certain. They have neither the intelligence, the industry, the moral habits, nor the desire of improvement which are essential to any favorable change in their condition.”
—Andrew Jackson (1767–1845)
““Hear me,” he said to the white commander. “I am tired. My heart is sick and sad. Our chiefs are dead; the little children are freezing. My people have no blankets, no food. From where the sun stands, I will fight no more forever.””
—For the State of Montana, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
