Aljunied Group Representation Constituency

Aljunied GRC was formed in 1988 and won by the People's Action Party (PAP). It absorbed the Eunos and Kaki Bukit wards of Eunos GRC in 1997, as well as the Punggol East and Punggol South divisions of Cheng San GRC in 2001.

The GRC has historically been hotly contested between the People's Action Party and Workers' Party (WP) in every election since 2006. The WP subsequently won the GRC from the ruling party in the 2011 general election, making it the first GRC to be won by the opposition since the introduction of the GRC concept in 1988. In the 2015 general election, the PAP team consisting of former MP Yeo Guat Kwang and four first-time candidates lost by a close margin, garnering a vote share of 49.04%. Prior to the 2020 general election, Low Thia Khiang and Chen Show Mao retired and were succeeded by Gerald Giam and Leon Perera respectively; the subsequent election saw the WP retaining the GRC with 59.95% of the votes, a 9% swing from the previous election.

The opposition-held GRC consists of a large part of Hougang (excluding Hougang SMC), Paya Lebar, Serangoon Gardens, the southern half of Serangoon North as well as a portion of Bedok and a very small section of Tampines.

Aljunied GRC and Hougang SMC are under the same town council, Aljunied-Hougang Town Council.

Between 2011 and 2020, Aljunied GRC was led by Low Thia Khiang; he was succeeded by Pritam Singh.
