Provenance & notes

Constituency number 221 confirmed by en.Wikipedia, bn.Wikipedia, Dhaka Post, and Channel 24 election tracker -- matches the task assignment, no discrepancy. Upazilas Shariatpur Sadar and Zajira confirmed by Wikipedia and the official Zajira Upazila government portal (zajira.shariatpur.gov.bd); 'Zanjira' is an alternate romanisation used in older sources (Banglapedia, LGED) but 'Zajira' is the upazila's own official spelling. Boundary not redrawn in the 2024 EC delimitation: the 46 redrawn seats in Shariatpur district were Shariatpur-2 and Shariatpur-3 only (Dhaka Tribune, BDNews24 coverage of final gazette). Winner vote count (77,398) and runner-up vote count (62,717) sourced from Bangladesh Pratidin (Feb 13 2026 unofficial results); raw margin = 14,681 votes. total_valid_votes not confirmed from any primary source; vote_share_percent and margin_percent left null rather than imputed. wealth_disclosed_bdt: Tk 1,199.95 crore (converted to BDT: 119,995,000,000) from EC nomination affidavit; corroborated by Wikipedia ('nearly Tk 1,200 crore') and multiple news snippets identifying Aslam as the richest MP in the 13th Jatiya Sangsad. criminal_cases: none documented in any source from the EC affidavit; left empty per EC-only rule. Runner-up Maulana Jalaluddin Ahmed contested on the Bangladesh Khelafat Majlis ticket (rickshaw symbol) per Bangladesh Pratidin. Party role 'Organising Secretary, Shariatpur District BNP' confirmed directly by BSS article (April 3 2026 canal inauguration). income_annual_disclosed_bdt, age, name_bangla, education, and committee_memberships not found in any primary source at verification date.
