Provenance & notes

BOUNDARY CORRECTION: The task brief described constituency 225 as covering Bishwambharpur + Sunamganj Sadar (parts). This is incorrect. Constituency 225 (Sunamganj-2) covers Dirai and Shalla upazilas, confirmed by EC, Wikipedia, BSS, Prothom Alo, and Dhaka Tribune. Bishwambharpur + Sunamganj Sadar is constituency 227 (Sunamganj-4), won by BNP's Nurul Islam. Vote math verified: 99522/163974 = 60.69%, 63220/163974 = 38.55%, margin = 36302/163974 = 22.14%. Winner + runner-up = 162742; remaining 1232 valid votes went to other candidates. Nasir Uddin Chowdhury is a Bir Muktijoddha (liberation war veteran). His 1996-2001 term was under Jatiya Party (Ershad); he has contested under BNP since 2001 (lost 2001, 2008, 2018; won 2026). Born in Kulung village, Dirai upazila. Age not confirmed in any primary source; do not impute. wealth_disclosed_bdt and criminal_cases set to null/empty: EC affidavit not publicly accessible at time of verification -- EC-only rule prevents imputation from any other source.
