S. M. Rafiqul Islam

The MP is currently facing regulatory scrutiny regarding the monetization of his social media accounts while serving in office.

Constituency number 196 confirmed by Wikipedia (Gazipur-3 article and List of constituencies), EC delimitation gazette (Dec 13 2025), and List of members of 13th Jatiya Sangsad -- matches the tasked number 196, no correction needed. Boundary redrawn: the Appellate Division upheld a Dec 2025 ruling keeping Gazipur at 5 constituencies; EC final gazette (Dec 13 2025) confirmed Gazipur-3 as Sreepur Upazila plus Mirzapur, Bhawalgarh, and Pirujali unions of Gazipur Sadar Upazila -- boundary_redrawn_2024 set True. Vote counts: Wikipedia (162,343 / 100,539 / total 300,860) used as primary official source; dhakatimes24 shows slightly different unofficial figures (161,258 / 99,354), consistent with early unofficial count; Wikipedia figures cross-check: 162,343/300,860=53.96%, 100,539/300,860=33.42%, margin 61,804 votes / 20.54 pp -- all consistent. MP is first-term; born in Sreepur (Tepirbari village) per Jugantor; this is first time a Sreepur-native won under sheaf-of-paddy symbol in 47 years. Khelafat Majlis ran under 11-party alliance; runner-up symbol was rickshaw. EC affidavit not publicly accessible at verification date -- wealth_disclosed_bdt, income_annual_disclosed_bdt, and criminal_cases left null/empty per EC-only rule. A vehicle arson/explosive case was filed against Bachchu under the prior AL government (arrested Nov 24 2023, released Jan 25 2024 after 68 days); EC validated his candidacy for the 13th parliament election -- case status as of Feb 2026 election not confirmed from EC affidavit, so criminal_cases remains empty per schema rule. Party role confirmed by multiple sources as Joint Health Affairs Secretary of BNP National Executive Committee (also described as 'Central Joint Health Affairs Secretary'). Registered voters: 527,360 (Jugantor pre-election data); 180 polling centres. Parliamentary committee memberships not yet publicly listed as of verification date.
