Dhaka - Present
The city is divided into ten parliamentary constituencies. Whichever party has won the parliamentary elections have also tended to win the majority of the seats inside the capital. Gulshan, Dhanmondi and Banani are the major residential neighborhoods. Motijheel is the major business district, containing the headquarters of most of the country's banks and corporate houses, as well as that of the central Bangladesh Bank, although many upscale businesses have recently relocated to Gulshan. Ramna contains the Secretariat, which houses most of the government ministries, the residences of senior Government officials, and is also the seat of the Supreme Court.
On August 17, 2005, the city was hit by a series of simultaneous explosions (part of approximately 500 explosions across the country), possibly set by terrorists. One Islamist group, Jamaat-ul-Mujahideen attempted to claim responsibility.
