Bogra-5 is a constituency represented in the Jatiya Sangsad (National Parliament) of Bangladesh. Golam Mohammad Siraj is the current member of parliament from this constituency.
Boundaries
The constituency encompasses Dhunat and Sherpur, integrating both upazilas under a single administrative and electoral boundary.[1][2]
History
The constituency was created for the first general elections in newly independent Bangladesh, held in 1973.
Ahead of the 2014 general election, the Election Commission expanded the boundaries of the constituency. Previously it had excluded two union parishads of Dhunat Upazila: Bhandarbari and Gosainbari.[2][5]
Habibur Rahman Habib was re-elected unopposed in the 2014 general election after opposition parties withdrew their candidacies in a boycott of the election.[11]
