Provenance & notes
CONSTITUENCY NUMBER DISCREPANCY: Task brief assigns this as constituency 141, but multiple authoritative sources (Wikipedia, viewsbangladesh.com, EC delimitation) consistently identify Mymensingh-4 as constituency 149. Constituency 141 belongs to Jamalpur-4 per Wikipedia list of constituencies. The file is named cnst_141.json per task instructions; recommend cross-checking the EC gazette for the 13th Parliament delimitation order. Parallel referendum in this constituency: 250,708 yes votes and 93,293 no votes (BSS; this is the constitutional referendum vote, not the parliamentary tally). Runner-up vote count 171,880 from BSS primary result report; total valid parliamentary votes not confirmed (5 candidates contested: BNP, Jamaat, BSD-Marxist, IAB, JP-E). Vote shares and margin not computed without confirmed total. EC affidavit data (age, education, wealth, criminal cases) not retrievable from available public sources; EC website returned 403 during verification. Party role varies across sources: 'divisional joint organising secretary' (Prothom Alo pre-election 2025), 'Member Secretary Metropolitan BNP' (2025), 'Assistant Organizing Secretary Mymensingh Division' (BNP NEC website 2026); latest BNP NEC source used. No prior parliamentary terms found. High Court petition by Kamrul Ahsan accepted March 16, 2026; seat status pending judicial resolution. [2026-05-17 status bump: EC-gazetted public election result; partial-only secondary fields (wealth/cases) noted but not required for verified status]
