The Wilayi Independents (Persian: مستقلین ولایی) is a parliamentary group in the 10th legislature of the Islamic Republic of Iran, unofficially led by Ali Larijani.[2] The faction was chaired by Kazem Jalali,[3] who was succeeded by Gholam Ali Jafarzadeh.[4]
Though a minority with an estimated 80 members,[1][5][6] the group is believed to have an advantage in the parliament by shaping a minority influence situation.[2]
