In Kandukur, it is a contest between Reddys and Kammas. It is a contest between Manugunta and Divi families. Nalamothu Chenchurama Naidu won from Kandukur for 2 consecutive times. Except those 10 years, rest of the period has been in the grip of Manugunta and Divi families. Manugunta Adinarayana Reddy created sensation by winning in 1983 and 1985 when whole state was in the grip of NTR especially coastal districts.
Kandukur Assembly segment was included in the Nellore Parliament constituency after de-limitation exercise. It was in Ongole before de-limitation. Prajarajyam party failed to show significant impact. In Kandukur, candidates are as important as political parties. Every election is a tight contest here.
