Chittagong-9 is a constituency represented in the Jatiya Sangsad (National Parliament) of Bangladesh since 2018 by Mohibul Hasan Chowdhury of the Awami League.
The constituency encompasses Chittagong City Corporation wards 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35. [2] [3]
The constituency was created for the first general elections in newly independent Bangladesh, held in 1973.
Ahead of the 2008 general election, the Election Commission redrew constituency boundaries to reflect population changes revealed by the 2001 Bangladesh census. [4] The 2008 reapportionment added one seat to Chittagong City and altered the boundaries of the three other seats in the city, including this one. [5] [6]
Ahead of the 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-9 covers the area previously covered by Chittagong-8. Previously Chittagong-9 encompassed Chittagong City Corporation wards 11 through 14, and 24 through 26, and part of ward 8. [2] [3]
In the 2018 general election, the constituency was one of six chosen by lottery to use electronic voting machines. [7]
