Bukit Lanjan (state constituency)
Bukit Lanjan is a state constituency in Selangor, Malaysia, that has been represented in the Selangor State Legislative Assembly.
The constituency was created in the 1994 redistribution and is mandated to return a single member to the Selangor State Legislative Assembly using the first-past-the-post voting system.
Historically, Bukit Lanjan has been a seat contested and held primarily by parties within the Pakatan Harapan coalition (formerly Pakatan Rakyat). Its electorate is generally considered to be relatively affluent and comprises a significant number of urban voters. The demographics and socio-economic profile of the area often influence the political discourse and issues prioritized by candidates during elections.
The boundaries of the constituency have been subject to periodic reviews and adjustments by the Election Commission of Malaysia to reflect changes in population distribution. These re-delineation exercises can impact the demographic composition and potentially the political leaning of the constituency.
Winning candidates are responsible for representing the interests of Bukit Lanjan constituents in the Selangor State Legislative Assembly, participating in debates, proposing legislation, and overseeing the allocation of state resources within the constituency.
