13th Parliament, 2026Women's Seat-19Current termBNP

According to the Parliament Secretariat, she has been elected an MP once. Parliament’s database holds the records of the 4th, 5th and 7th to 12th Parliaments; it has no lists for the 1st to 3rd and the 6th, so an earlier term in those, if any, does not appear here.
