Member of Parliament (Bangladesh)
The Constitution specifies that Parliament consists of 300 directly elected members, while 50 seats are reserved for women.[2] The individual who leads the largest party or alliance in parliament usually becomes Prime Minister of Bangladesh.[1] This is in accordance with Article 68 of the Constitution which makes provision for remuneration, allowances and privileges for members.[6] The Constitution specifies that Parliament consists of 300 directly elected members from general seats elected by use of first past the post who represent single-constituencies, while 50 seats are reserved exclusively for women and are allocated on a proportional basis.In reality, there has never been an election for reserved seats as parties have never nominated more candidates than they have been allocated.
