Tokhi (Pashto: توخی) is an influential Ghilzai Pashtun tribe found throughout southern, eastern, southeastern and northeastern Afghanistan. In the Pashtun tribal hierarchy Tokhi is one of the most respected tribes. They are wholly powerful, rich and widely considered to be one of the most brave, warlike and tough Pashtun tribes.
They have traditionally centered around Qalat-i-Ghilzai, also known as Qalat-i-Tokhi. As Ghilzai are a nomadic tribe, Tokhi have moved from one place to another over the centuries. Although, some still following nomadic traditions, today most of them being wealthy have eliminated their nomadic customs and have settled in different parts of the world.
