The Ak Jol People's Party (Kyrgyz: Ак Жол элдик партиясы), also simply Ak Jol (Ак Жол, IPA: [ɑq t͡ɕoɫ]), is a political party in Kyrgyzstan, founded by President Kurmanbek Bakiyev on 15 October 2007 to contest the parliamentary election that was held in December 2007.^[5]

It gained 71 of the 90 seats in the 2007 elections and was one of the three parties to enter into the parliament,^{[citation needed]} obtaining most of its support from the south of the country.^[6] However, following the Kyrgyz Revolution of 2010, snap elections were called, and the party lost all of its seats. It did not re-enter parliament thereafter, and it is defunct.
