Rajshahi-4 is a constituency represented in the Jatiya Sangsad (National Parliament) of Bangladesh since 2024 by Abul Kalam Azad of the Awami League.
The constituency encompasses Bagmara Upazila.[2][3]
The constituency was created for the first general elections in newly independent Bangladesh, held in 1973.
Enamul Haque was re-elected unopposed in the 2014 general election after opposition parties withdrew their candidacies in a boycott of the election.[8] In the 2018 general election, the ruling Awami League renominated Enamul Haque. On the other hand, BNP gave ticket to Abu Hena. However, in a lopsided victory, Enamul Haque retained the seat with a thumping majority. In the 2024 Bangladesh general election, Enamul Haque was denied nomination in favor of Abul Kalam Azad. Rebelling, Enamul Haque ran as an independent candidate. On the other hand, BNP did not participate in the election. In this election, Abul Kalam Azad beat Enamul Haque by a handsome margin.
