Dhaka-5 is a constituency represented in the Jatiya Sangsad (National Parliament) of Bangladesh. This constituency is represented by Bangladesh Jamaat-e-Islami candidate Mohammad Kamal Hossain.
The constituency encompasses wards 48 through 50 and 62-70 of Dhaka South City Corporation, as well as four union parishads of Demra, Jatrabari, and Shyampur Thana: Dhania, Demra, Matuail, and Sarulia integrating these areas within a single administrative and electoral boundary.
The constituency was created for the first general elections in newly independent Bangladesh, held in 1973.
Ahead of the 2008 general election, the Election Commission redrew constituency boundaries to reflect population changes revealed by the 2001 Bangladesh census. The 2008 redistricting altered the boundaries of the constituency.
Khaleda Zia stood for five seats in the 1991 general election: Bogra-7, Dhaka-5, Dhaka-9, Feni-1, and Chittagong-8. After winning all five, she chose to represent Feni-1 and quit the other four, triggering by-elections in them. Mohammad Quamrul Islam of the BNP was elected in a September 1991 by-election.
