Gazipur-4 is a constituency represented in the Jatiya Sangsad (National Parliament) of Bangladesh since 2012 by Simeen Hussain Rimi of the Awami League.

Boundaries

The constituency encompasses Kapasia Upazila.[2][3]

History

The constituency was created in 1984 from a Dhaka constituency when the former Dhaka District was split into six districts: Manikganj, Munshiganj, Dhaka, Gazipur, Narsingdi, and Narayanganj.

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 redistricting added a fifth seat to Gazipur District and altered the boundaries of Gazipur-4.[5]
