When it comes to social groups, 32 percent belong to lower social groups. Boya Valmiki has 22%, Koppula velama 11%, Kondadora 16%, Kondu 5% and others 14%. In 2014, Vishwasarai Kalavathi contested from YSRCP. She got 55337 votes. Nimmaka Jayakrishna who contested from tdp got 53,717 votes. Kalavati got majority with 1620. And when it comes to 2019, Kalavathi got 72,054 votes. Jayakrishna got 54,074 votes. This time Kalavati won again with a majority of 17900. In this election, while Kalavati is contesting from ycp for the third time, Jayakrishna is contesting from janasena Party.
Strengths:
Kalavati, the rock of faith who still won twice, data-faced tremendous opposition. There is also a misconception that the development of the constituency has been forgotten due to many irregularities such as sand dandas and land grabbing. She offered to vote in tears in 2014 and said that no one cared about me because she could not develop with the tdp government. In 2019, the ycp won again and was in power but did not do any development work for the constituency. Especially since it is a st reserved constituency, engineering colleges, degree colleges and markets have failed to be brought here. Especially in the forest areas, there are many difficulties due to lack of road facilities. So this time Vishwasarai Kalavathi is likely to data-face a setback there. As for Nimmaka Jayakrishna, he has already been defeated twice. However, he did not leave the constituency like a tyrant. Staying in the constituency since the last ten years, he supported the cadre no matter what the difficulties. He became very close to the people by pointing out the mistakes Kalavati was doing from time to time. In addition to this, Simpati, who has been defeated twice, this time tdp, bjp and janasena are contesting together is the main common factor. So the people there say that Nimmaka Jayakrishna has won this time.
