Syed Zainul Abedin

As an MP representing the main opposition party in the 13th Jatiya Sangsad, Syed Zainul Abedin is currently focused on legislative oversight and representing his constituency's interests.

Constituency 177 = Dhaka-4 confirmed across Wikipedia, EC constituency list, and Dhaka Tribune. Winner confirmed by TBS (margin 2,920 votes: 77,367 to 74,447), Prothom Alo, Wikipedia, and BSS. Raw vote counts for winner and runner-up are cross-confirmed from two independent sources; total valid votes for Dhaka-4 were not published in accessible form, so vote_share_percent, runner_up_vote_share, total_valid_votes, and margin_percent are null rather than estimated. Abedin was born 1 March 1971 in Bakerganj, Barishal (age 55 at time of election); this is his first parliamentary term. Constituency covers Shyampur and Kadamtali thanas in Dhaka South City Corporation (wards 47, 51-54, 58-61); boundary was last redrawn ahead of 2008 elections, not 2024. Prothom Alo affidavit analysis (pre-election) reported annual income ~Tk 2.5 million and bank deposits Tk 5.83 million, but the EC affidavit PDF was not directly accessible; per EC-only rule, wealth_disclosed_bdt and income_annual_disclosed_bdt are left null. No criminal cases found in any source. Abedin worked at Social Islami Bank from its early years until retiring as vice president in January 2026; his April 12 SIBL letter is his most prominent post-election public action. The 'special committee chairman Zainul Abedin' in BSS/Dhaka Tribune reports on ordinance review is the MP from Barishal-3, a different person. Runner-up Tanveer Ahmed Robin is member secretary of BNP Dhaka City South unit.
