The Jeli District (Jawi: جلي) is a district and a parliamentary constituency in western Kelantan, Malaysia. As of 2010, the district's population is estimated to be 42,150. Jeli is administered by the Jeli District Council. Jeli is bordered by Perak's Hulu Perak District to the west, the Thai district of Waeng to the north, Tanah Merah District to the northeast and Kuala Krai District to the southeast.
Most people in Jeli work as rubber tappers. The rubber plantations which belong to the local people also attract people from outside to come and work. Commonly families own a small plantation of 6 acres (24,000 m2) up to 50 acres (200,000 m2) in size. The history of Jeli began when the government encouraged the people around Kelantan to start a great area of agriculture. This process began with a period of land clearing, or logging.
History
Jeli district (jajahan) was originally an autonomous sub-district (Jajahan Kecil), formed on 1 July 1982 from parts of Tanah Merah (Jeli and Belimbing) and Kuala Krai (Kuala Balah) district. It was elevated to a full district on 1 January 1986 and made a full parliamentary constituency in the 1995 elections. Being a totally new residential area, initially Jeli had residents coming from other parts of Kelantan. Jeli became host to thousands of hopefuls from all over Kelantan during the late 70's and early 80's, hoping to get a fresh start in this district. While the first generations of Jeli residents mostly involved in rubber tapping and other forms of plantations for a living, the current generations have managed to find their way up to a much better profession, thanks to the proper education system and dedicated teachers available to this remote area.

Another attraction at Jeli is Jeli Hot Spring, one of the hottest hot springs in Malaysia. Jeli Hot Spring is located about 15 km from Jeli town. Jeli hot spring has a higher health value as it has a high sulphur content. Other attractions include Lata Janggut, Lata Renyok and Lata Chenang.
Transportation
Highway 4 is the main road in the constituency, going in an east-west direction. To the west it goes to Gerik, Perak and all the way to Kedah and Penang; to the east it continues to Pasir Puteh. Jeli is therefore known as the 'western gateway' into the East Coast for visitors from Penang, Kedah and Perlis.
The junction of highways 4 and Highway 66 is located near Jeli town. Highway 66 leads to Kuala Balah in the southern part of Jeli constituency, and is a shortcut to the railway town of Dabong and Kuala Krai. City liner bus transport also provided their service through this route connected people to the nearby town
