Boundaries

The constituency encompasses Chandpur Sadar and Haimchar upazilas. [2] [3]

History

The constituency was created in 1984 from a Comilla constituency when the former Comilla District was split into three districts: Brahmanbaria, Comilla, and Chandpur.

Ahead of the 2008 general election, the Election Commission redrew constituency boundaries to reflect population changes in light of the 2001 Bangladesh census. [4] The 2008 redistricting altered the boundaries of the constituency. [5]
