Saching Prue Jerry

Constituency 300 (Bandarban) covers the entire Bandarban district, all 7 upazilas: Bandarban Sadar, Lama, Alikadam, Ruma, Thanchi, Naikhongchhari, and Rowangchhari. It is the sole parliamentary seat for the district and is widely reported as Bangladesh's smallest constituency by registered voter count, reflecting the sparsely populated CHT terrain. The seat is predominantly inhabited by indigenous communities including Marma, Bawm, Tripura, Chakma, and Mro peoples; Saching Prue Jerry is himself from the Marma community and a practising Buddhist, son of Aung Shwe Prue Chowdhury (a prince of the Bohmong Circle). Vote counts confirmed by TBS News and BSS: winner 141,455; runner-up 26,162; raw margin 115,293 (matches the reported 'over 1.15 lakh' margin).
