Provenance & notes
USER-SPECIFIED NUMBER 137 IS INCORRECT. Per EC delimitation and Wikipedia, constituency 137 is Tangail-8. Sherpur-3 (Sreebardi-Jhenaigati) is constituency 145. This file is named cnst_137.json as instructed but records the correct EC number 145. The Feb 12, 2026 election was postponed in Sherpur-3 following the death of Jamaat candidate Nuruzzaman Badol; rescheduled election held April 9, 2026. Rubel won his 5th (by-election as independent, 1995), 6th (Feb 1996 as BNP), and 8th (2001) parliaments prior; this is his 4th parliamentary win total (did not win 7th/9th/11th). Bangla Wikipedia gives birth as 21 September 1971 (age 54 as of May 2026). EC affidavit wealth/income figures not available in published sources; left null per schema rules. Criminal case note: Rubel is named among 700+ accused in murder case over Jan 28, 2026 clash; HC anticipatory bail granted. This is from news sources, not EC affidavit; flagged accordingly. Mizanur Rahman (BSD-Marxist) received 480 votes (0.22%).
