Panchagarh-1 is a constituency represented in the Jatiya Sangsad (National Parliament) of Bangladesh since 2026 by Muhammad Nawshad Zamir of the Bangladesh Nationalist Party.
Boundaries The constituency encompasses Panchagarh Sadar and Tetulia upazilas and all but two parts of Atwari Upazila: Boda Municipality wards 8 and 9.
History The constituency was created in 1984 from the Dinajpur-2 constituency when the former Dinajpur District was split into three districts: Panchagarh, Thakurgaon, and Dinajpur.
As of 2008, the constituency encompassed Atwari, Panchagarh Sadar, and Tetulia upazilas.
Boda Municipality lies mostly in Boda Upazila, but its two wards southwest of the Pathraj River, 8 and 9, are in Atwari Upazila. Ahead of the 2026 general election, the Election Commission reduced the boundaries of the constituency by moving these two wards from Panchagarh-1 to Panchagarh-2.
