Washim was a Lok Sabha constituency in Maharashtra state in western India from 1977 (6th Lok Sabha) till 2004 elections (14th Lok Sabha). It was created before the 1977 Lok Sabha elections,[1] with abolishment of three term Khamgaon Lok Sabha constituency in neighbouring Buldhana district. This constituency was dissolved when the delimitation of parliamentary constituencies based on the recommendations of the Delimitation Commission of India constituted in 2002 was implemented with the creation of new Yavatmal-Washim Lok Sabha constituency.
