The 2026 result (Wikipedia) is the authoritative figure used: 129,385 vs 104,747; Dhaka Tribune live results reported 128,366 vs 103,236 (slight discrepancy, Wikipedia preferred). Nizam Uddin Jalil John, 12th Parliament MP (AL, 2024), vacated after August 6, 2024 resignation of Sheikh Hasina's government.
