CONSTITUENCY NUMBER CORRECTION: The task brief specified constituency_number = 146 and labelled the seat 'Mymensingh-9 (Nandail)'. These two identifiers are mutually exclusive by EC numbering. The Wikipedia 'List of constituencies of the Jatiya Sangsad' confirms: constituency 146 = Mymensingh-1 (Haluaghat, Dhobaura); Mymensingh-9 (Nandail) = constituency 154. This is corroborated by the Wikipedia Mymensingh-9 article, BSS results, and viewsbangladesh.com. The EC-only rule requires the correct EC number: constituency_number is set to 154. File is named cnst_146.json per task instruction. The correct Mymensingh-1 data remains the canonical record for EC constituency 146. Vote count 85,761 (winner) and 71,168 (runner-up AKM Anwarul Islam, Bangladesh Development Party) confirmed by BSS primary source. BSS also quoted 85,473 and 70,152 in one search snippet, but the BSS article itself (360878) states 85,761 and 71,168; those figures are used. vote_share_percent and margin_percent omitted: total valid votes not available from primary sources; registered voters 384,641 per viewsbangladesh.com. wealth_disclosed_bdt: EC affidavit portal not accessible; marked null. Born 18 February 1982, Moazzempur village, Nandail upazila (Wikipedia). Education: no verifiable primary-source details found; field left null. Father Anwarul Hossain Khan Chowdhury was MP for Mymensingh-9 in 1991 (BNP). Yaser Khan Chowdhury is a first-term MP.
