Narsingdi-5

Narsingdi-5 is a constituency represented in the Jatiya Sangsad (National Parliament) of Bangladesh.

[1][2] The constituency was created in 1984 from the Dhaka-26 constituency when the former Dhaka District was split into six districts: Manikganj, Munshiganj, Dhaka, Gazipur, Narsingdi, and Narayanganj.

Ahead of the 2008 general election, the Election Commission redrew constituency boundaries to reflect population changes revealed by the 2001 Bangladesh census.

Previously it had excluded three union parishads: Daukar Char, Marjal, and Uttar Bakharnagar.

Rajiuddin Ahmed Raju was re-elected unopposed in the 2014 general election after opposition parties withdrew their candidacies in a boycott of the election.
