CRITICAL: The EC-official constituency number is 159, not 151. The task brief used 151; the correct number per the List of Constituencies of the Jatiya Sangsad (Wikipedia), English and Bangla Wikipedia Netrokona-3 articles, and the List of Members of the 13th Jatiya Sangsad is 159. Netrokona-1 = 157, Netrokona-2 = 158, Netrokona-3 = 159, Netrokona-4 = 160, Netrokona-5 = 161. constituency_number set to 159 accordingly. | Vote math verified independently: 118,469 / 234,942 = 50.42%; 68,961 / 234,942 = 29.35%; margin = 50.42 - 29.35 = 21.07 pp; raw vote margin = 118,469 - 68,961 = 49,508. Wikipedia shows 50.43% and 21.08% due to sub-0.01 pp rounding; this record uses independently computed values. Raw vote counts and 29.35% runner-up share are consistent across both computations. | Runner-up Md. Delowar Hossain Bhuiyan Dulal is a former vice-president of Netrokona district BNP who ran as an expelled BNP rebel independent (horse symbol). | Hilali also ran in 2008 from the same seat, finishing second with 86,948 votes (39.3%) to AL's Monjur Kader Kuraishi (132,557 votes, 59.9%). Prior win in this seat: BNP's Nurul Amin Talukdar won in 1996 and 2001; Khadija Amin (BNP by-election 2003). This is Hilali's first parliamentary win. | He is known locally as 'durodiner Hilali bhai' and reportedly faced 56 criminal cases over 16 years under AL rule (source: Ekushey Sangbad, paywalled/403 at time of verification). 'Dr.' prefix in all sources implies doctoral degree but field and institution not confirmed from any accessible primary source. | wealth_disclosed_bdt and criminal_cases are null: EC nomination affidavit not publicly accessible at time of verification. | boundary_redrawn_2024 = false: no delimitation change noted in any source for this constituency. | No post-election constituency visits or parliamentary statements independently confirmed in accessible public sources for the 90-day window; activity_score set to 2 (first-term MP in new parliament, low public-record signal so far).
