Recent activity

Provenance & notes

Winner vote count (139,842) and runner-up vote count (91,796 for Ataur Rahman Sarkar, Jamaat-e-Islami) sourced from Bangladesh Pratidin post-election report (2026-02-13) and corroborated by multiple search sources. Margin in absolute votes: 48,046. Total valid votes not confirmed from any primary source; at least five additional candidates contested (per ViewsBangladesh candidate list: Bangladesh Khelafat Majlis, independent, CPB, Jatiya Party, Ganosamhati Andolon) so two-candidate sum (231,638) understates the total. vote_share_percent and margin_percent therefore set to null rather than fabricated. EC affidavit (wealth, criminal cases) not publicly accessible at time of verification. age set to null: campaign-era reports described him as 'reportedly in his 90s' but no EC affidavit or primary document confirms DOB. Nomination history: BNP initially named Mushfiqur Rahman, replaced him with Kabir Ahmed Bhuiyan in late December 2025 (TBS, 2025-12-29), then apparently reversed the replacement -- the final EC candidate list and election result both show Mushfiqur Rahman contesting and winning under BNP symbol. Prior term: elected from Brahmanbaria-4 in 2001 (8th Jatiya Sangsad, served 2001-2006); his 11th Sangsad nomination was cancelled by the EC. term_count is therefore 2. Constituency number 246 confirmed by Wikipedia Brahmanbaria-4 article, List of 13th Jatiya Sangsad members, and ViewsBangladesh candidate listing -- matches the task prompt; no correction needed.
