== History == The constituency was created in 1978 a Mymensingh constituency when the former Mymensingh District was split into two districts: [[Jamalpur District|Jamalpur]] and [[Mymensingh District|Mymensingh]].<ref name="WorldBank" />
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" /> The 2008 redistricting altered the boundaries of the constituency.<ref name="ds11Jul2008" />
