Kadapa may be one of the safest constituencies for Congress party in India but that is history now. YSR family has unbelievable grip over this Lok Sabha seat. It is their family bastion. TDP won only once from Kadapa Lok Sabha in 1984 but Telugu Desam has strong cadre in the constituency.
Y.S. Rajasekhar Reddy created history by winning with highest victory margin in 1991 & with lowest margin of victory in 1996. CPI used to dominate Cuddapah politics until 1970. YSR family member never lost in Kadapa Lok Sabha. Can Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy continue the tradition?
