Parliament Watch
BNP · Narayanganj-5
The MP is focused on the implementation of the national budget and the development of regional healthcare infrastructure in Narayanganj-5.
Constituency number 208 confirmed by Wikipedia and EC constituency list; no discrepancy found. Winner vote count 114,799 confirmed by BSS (English and Bangla), Wikipedia (English), and Prothom Alo; an early web-search summary erroneously rendered 114,779 (off by 20 -- likely OCR artifact). Runner-up votes: BSS primary article gives 101,196; Prothom Alo gives 110,196 -- these two sources diverge. BSS is the state wire and the figure is corroborated by Wikipedia's calculated vote share (37.34% of 271,027 = ~101,196). Prothom Alo 110,196 is likely a transcription error; 101,196 adopted. Total valid votes (271,027) and electorate (485,288) from Wikipedia Narayanganj-5 article; vote share math verified: 114,799/271,027 = 42.36%, 101,196/271,027 = 37.34%, margin = 5.02 pp. Khelafat Majlis candidate ABM Sirajul Mamun requested a vote recount alleging irregularities (jagonews24.com); no official reversal found.
