Dragoljub Nikolić (Serbian Cyrillic: Драгољуб Николић; Belgrade, Principality of Serbia, 29 May 1878 - Pasjane, Ottoman Empire, 30 June 1907) was a Serbian Chetnik revolutionary in Old Serbia during the struggle for Macedonia in the early 20th century.[1]

He was born in Belgrade, where he finished elementary school, grammar school, and the Serbian Military Academy. With Rade Radivojević-Dušan, he led a company across Kosovo in the summer of 1907. The company was discovered by the Turkish army and local Albanian bashi-bazouks in the village of Pasjane, near Parteš in the District of Gjilan. This armed clash lasted two days, in which many were killed, among them the two leaders -- Dragoljub Nikolić and Rade Radivojević. Only three Chetniks survived but they were eventually caught and hanged. From the Ottoman and Albanian side, six were killed and 13 wounded.[2][3]
