Bukit Batok Single Member Constituency


Bukit Batok Single Member Constituency is a constituency covering a portion of Bukit Batok in Singapore. It existed from 1972 to 1997, when it was merged with Bukit Timah GRC. It was carved out as an SMC again ahead of the 2015 general elections. It absorbed part of Bukit Panjang, Bukit Timah & Choa Chu Kang constituencies in 1972.
In March 2016, the elected MP for Bukit Batok SMC, David Ong of the People's Action Party, resigned due to an extra-marital affair with a fellow PAP member, precipitating the Bukit Batok by-election. On 7 May 2016, Murali Pillai won the seat of Bukit Batok against Singapore Democratic Party secretary-general, Chee Soon Juan by a vote count of 61.2% to 38.8%. Dr Chee Soon Juan contested this constituency again at the 2020 general election but narrowly lost to Murali Pillai.
