Sayed Zulfikar Abbas Bukhari (born 3 December 1980),[1] also known as Zulfi Bukhari, is a Pakistani politician, businessman and film producer.[2]

He served as a Special Assistant to Prime Minister Imran Khan in the capacity of a Minister of State in the federal cabinet until his resignation on 17 May 2021 over the allegations levelled at him in regard to the Rawalpindi Ring Road scandal.[3] The allegations were found to be politically motivated initiated by PTI insider to create distance between Zulfi Bukhari and PM Khan. The investigation team formally cleared him and PTI re-instated him on party positions.[4]
