**Chandpur-1** is a constituency represented in the [Jatiya Sangsad](/source/Jatiya_Sangsad) (National Parliament) of Bangladesh.

## Boundaries

The constituency encompasses [Kachua Upazila](/source/Kachua_Upazila%2C_Chandpur).[2][3]

## 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).[4] The 2008 redistricting altered the boundaries of the constituency.[5]

Ahead of the [2014 general election](/source/2014_Bangladeshi_general_election), the Election Commission reduced the boundaries of the constituency. Previously it had also included one [union parishad](/source/Union_parishad) of [Matlab Dakshin Upazila](/source/Matlab_Dakshin_Upazila): Narayanpur.[3][6]
