Pirojpur-1

Pirojpur-1 is a constituency represented in the Jatiya Sangsad (National Parliament) of Bangladesh.

The constituency encompasses Nazirpur, Pirojpur Sadar, and Nesarabad upazilas.

[2][3] The constituency was created in 1984 from the Bakerganj-14 constituency when the former Bakerganj District was split into four districts: Bhola, Bakerganj, Jhalokati, and Pirojpur.

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

[3][6] AKMA Awal was re-elected unopposed in the 2014 general election after opposition parties withdrew their candidacies in a boycott of the election.
