**Brahmanbaria-6** is a constituency represented in the [Jatiya Sangsad](/source/Jatiya_Sangsad) (National Parliament) of [Bangladesh](/source/Bangladesh).

## Boundaries

The constituency encompasses [Bancharampur Upazila](/source/Bancharampur_Upazila).[1]

## History

The constituency was created in 1984 from a Comilla constituency when the former Comilla District was split into three districts: [Brahmanbaria](/source/Brahmanbaria_District), [Comilla](/source/Comilla_District), and [Chandpur](/source/Chandpur_District).

Ahead of the [2008 general election](/source/2008_Bangladeshi_general_election), the [Election Commission](/source/Bangladesh_Election_Commission) redrew constituency boundaries to reflect population changes revealed by the [2001 Bangladesh census](/source/2001_Bangladesh_census).[2] The 2008 redistricting altered the boundaries of the constituency.[3]

Ahead of the [2018 general election](/source/2018_Bangladeshi_general_election), the Election Commission reduced the boundaries of the constituency by removing two [union parishads](/source/Union_parishad) of [Nabinagar Upazila](/source/Nabinagar_Upazila): Barikandi and Salimganj.[4][1][5]
