The Blagoveshchensk constituency (No.4 [a] ) is a Russian legislative constituency in Bashkortostan. The constituency covers parts of Ufa as well as northern and north-eastern Bashkiria. The present day Blagoveshchensk constituency was created in 2015 from parts of former Ordzhonikidzevsky, Kalininsky and Sovetsky constituencies.

The constituency has been represented since 2021 by United Russia deputy Rafael Mardanshin, a three-term State Duma member and businessman, who won the open seat, succeeding one-term United Russia incumbent Ildar Bikbayev.

Boundaries

The constituency covered the entirety of northern Bashkiria and north-central parts of the republic, including the towns of Agidel, Birsk, Neftekamsk, Yanaul and oil-rich areas in the northwest.

The constituency was significantly altered after the 2003 redistricting, losing the entirety of rural northern and north-eastern Bashkiria to Klaininsky constituency. The constituency instead stretched southwards along the Syun river (formerly Tuymazy constituency) as well as to the south-east to Ufa, gaining Ordzhinikidzevsky District of the city and Blagoveshchensk from Oktyabrsky constituency.

The constituency was re-created for the 2016 election and received a new name "Blagoveshchensk constituency". This seat retained Ordzhonikidzevsky District of Ufa and suburban and exurban areas to the north of the city, including Blagoveshchensk. The constituency regained most of northern and north-eastern Bashkortostan from the dissolved Kalininsky constituency.
