Zanele Patricia "Pat" Dlungwana (born 16 January 1952)[1] is a South African politician who represented the African National Congress (ANC) in the Free State Provincial Legislature from 1999 to 2008.

Legislative career
A former librarian from Qwaqwa,[2] Dlungwana was elected to the provincial legislature in the 1999 general election[1] and was re-elected in the 2004 general election.[3] In the aftermath of the 2004 election, on 3 May 2004, Premier Marshoff appointed her as Member of the Executive Council (MEC) for Social Development.[4] In a reshuffle in August 2007, she was moved to a new portfolio as MEC for Public Safety and Liaison.[5]
On 15 May 2008, Dlungwana vacated her seat in the provincial legislature in order to join the National Assembly, where she filled the casual vacancy arising from Sisi Ntombela's departure.[6] She left Parliament after the 2009 general election.
