Chittagong-10 is a constituency represented in the Jatiya Sangsad (National Parliament) of Bangladesh.

Boundaries

The constituency encompasses Halishahar Cantonment and Chattogram City Corporation wards 8, 11, 12, 13, 14, 24, 25, 26.

History

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.

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-10 covers the area previously covered by Chittagong-9. Previously, Chittagong-10 encompassed Chittagong City Corporation wards 27 through 30 and 36 through 41.
