No one has succeeded in defeating a YS family member from Kadapa seat in the last 35 years. The family's reign here started with Congress heavyweight and former CM of undivided Andhra Pradesh, YSR Reddy. He won the seat four times - in 1989, 1991, 1996, and 1998. His brother Vivekananda Reddy then served two terms as MP from the constituency in 1999 and 2004.
The following term, in 2009, YSR’s son Jagan Mohan Reddy retained Kadapa’s seat on Congress’ ticket. After Jagan Mohan branched out from Congress and launched his own party YSRCP, Kadapa remained under the family's belt. Jagan Mohan's cousin YS Avinash Reddy has been retaining this seat since 2014.
In this year's election, Kadapa is likely to be retained by the family. But what makes the contest fierce is the intra-family feud. YSRCP has fielded incumbent MP YS Avinash Reddy. Contesting against him is his cousin and Jagan Mohan's sister YS Sharmila Reddy, on Congress' ticket.
Assembly seats that fall under Kadapa parliamentary constituency include Badvel (Sc), Jammalamadugu, Kadapa, Kamalapuram, Mydukur, Proddatur, Pulivendla.
