== Boundaries == The constituency encompasses the [[Halishahar Cantonment]] and parts of the [[Chattogram City Corporation]], specifically Wards [[Sholokbahar Ward|8]], [[South Kattali Ward|11]], [[Saraipara Ward|12]], [[Pahartali Ward|13]], [[Lalkhan Bazar Ward|14]], [[North Agrabad Ward|24]], [[Rampur Ward|25]], and [[North Halishahar Ward|26]], integrating these areas under a single administrative and electoral boundary.<ref name="ecs" />
== History == The constituency was created for the first general elections in newly independent Bangladesh, held in 1973.
Ahead of the [[2008 Bangladeshi general election|2008 general election]], the [[Bangladesh Election Commission|Election Commission]] redrew constituency boundaries to reflect population changes revealed by the [[2001 Bangladesh census]].<ref name="Rahman2010" /><ref name="ds11Jul2008" />
Ahead of the [[2014 Bangladeshi general election|2014 general election]], the Election Commission renumbered the seat for [[Sandwip Upazila]] from Chittagong-16 to Chittagong-3, bumping up by one the suffix of the former constituency of that name and the higher numbered constituencies in the district. Thus Chittagong-10 covers the area previously covered by Chittagong-9. Previously, Chittagong-10 encompassed [[Chittagong City Corporation]] wards 27 through 30 and 36 through 41.<ref name="maps" /><ref name="ecs" />
