The current [[Member of Parliament]] in this constituency is [[Asadul Habib Dulu]] of [[Bangladesh Nationalist Party]].
== Boundaries == The constituency encompasses [[Lalmonirhat Sadar Upazila]].<ref name="maps" /><ref name="ecs" />
== History == The constituency was created in 1984 from a Rangpur constituency when the former Rangpur District was split into five districts: [[Nilphamari District|Nilphamari]], [[Lalmonirhat District|Lalmonirhat]], [[Rangpur District|Rangpur]], [[Kurigram District|Kurigram]], and [[Gaibandha District|Gaibandha]].
In the [[2026 Bangladeshi general election|2026 general elections]], this victory was part of a "clean sweep" by the BNP in Lalmonirhat, where the party won all three parliamentary seats Including [[Lalmonirhat-1]], [[Lalmonirhat-2]], and Lalmonirhat-3, The election marked a significant shift as the BNP had not won these three specific seats since the [[1979 Bangladeshi general election|1979 General Elections]].<ref>{{Cite web |url=https://en.prothomalo.com/bangladesh/politics/x0qhvwd4e8 |title=Jatiya Party attempts a comeback in Lalmonirhat |date=2025-12-24 |website=Prothomalo |access-date=2026-03-06 |last=Rob|first=Abdur|language=en}}</ref>
