Bangladeshi parliamentary constituency

Chittagong-14 Constituency for the Jatiya Sangsad District Chittagong District Division Chittagong Division Electorate 313,513 (2026) Current constituency Created 1973 Parliamentary Party Bangladesh Nationalist Party Member of Parliament Jashim Uddin Ahammed ← 290 Chittagong-13 292 Chittagong-15 →

**Chittagong-14** is a constituency represented in the [Jatiya Sangsad](/source/Jatiya_Sangsad) (National Parliament) of [Bangladesh](/source/Bangladesh). [Jashim uddin ahammed](/source/Jashim_uddin_ahammed) is current member of Parliament from this constituency.

## Boundaries

The constituency encompasses [Chandanaish Upazila](/source/Chandanaish_Upazila) and six [union parishads](/source/Union_Parishad) of [Satkania Upazila](/source/Satkania_Upazila) Bazalia, Dharmapur, Kaliais, Keochia, Khagaria, and Puranagar integrating these areas under a single administrative and electoral boundary.[1]

## History

The constituency was created for the first general elections in newly independent Bangladesh, held in 1973.

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 [2014 general election](/source/2014_Bangladeshi_general_election), the Election Commission renumbered the seat for Chittagong-16 (Sandwip) to Chittagong-3, bumping up by one the suffix of the former constituency of that name and higher numbered constituencies in the district. Thus Chittagong-14 covers the area previously covered by Chittagong-13. Previously Chittagong-14 encompassed [Lohagara](/source/Lohagara_Upazila%2C_Chittagong) and all but seven union parishads of [Satkania](/source/Satkania_Upazila): Bazalia, Dharmapur, Kaliais, Keochia, Khagaria, Puranagar, and Sadaha.[4][1][5]
