Jamalpur-5
Jamalpur-5 is a constituency represented in the Jatiya Sangsad (National Parliament) of Bangladesh since 2024 by Md Abul Kalam Azad of the Awami League.
Boundaries
The constituency encompasses Jamalpur Sadar Upazila.
History
The constituency was created in 1978 a Mymensingh constituency when the former Mymensingh District was split into two districts: Jamalpur and Mymensingh.
Ahead of the 2008 general election, the Election Commission redrew constituency boundaries to reflect population changes revealed by the 2001 Bangladesh census. The 2008 redistricting altered the boundaries of the constituency.
Ahead of the 2018 general election, the Election Commission expanded the boundaries of the constituency by adding two union parishads of Jamalpur Sadar Upazila: Meshta and Titpalla.
