Md GK Gaus

Constituency number 241 confirmed by Wikipedia (Habiganj-3 article), viewsbangladesh district election article (2008 pre-election data), and parliament.gov.bd 10th parliament record. Upazilas: Wikipedia on Habiganj-3 lists only Habiganj Sadar and Lakhai; however Wikipedia on Shayestaganj Upazila explicitly states that upazila belongs to Habiganj-3 constituency. Shayestaganj was carved out of Habiganj Sadar on 20 November 2017 (Bangladesh's 492nd upazila). It is administratively distinct but falls within the original Habiganj-3 constituency boundary; all three upazilas included here. boundary_redrawn_2024 = false: Shayestaganj was separated in 2017, predating the 2024 EC delimitation cycle; no evidence of a 2024 boundary change for this seat.
