&lt;br /&gt;
== History ==&lt;br /&gt;
In the Prathipadu assembly constituency, several political parties have competed for representation over the years. The Indian National Congress (INC) has been a prominent contender, securing victory in 5 elections held in 1952, 1972, 1978, 2004, and 2009. Following closely behind, the Telugu Desam Party (TDP) has demonstrated significant electoral success, winning seats in 7 elections conducted in 1983, 1985, 1989, 1994, 1999,2014 and 2024. Additionally, other parties such as the YSR Congress Party (YSRCP), Krishikar Lok Party (KLP), Communist Party of India (CPI), and Swatantra Party have also made notable contributions to the political landscape of the constituency.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
According to the orders of the Delimitation Commission in 1955, the Assembly Constituency was named Pedda Kakani and included Prathipadu firka and Peddakakani firka (excluding Koppuravur, Venigandla, Nambur, Kantamraj-Kondur, Penumuli, and Devarayabhotlapalem villages) in Guntur taluk.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Delimitation Commission, 1955, pp. 22, 48.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In the 1967 delimitation order, the Prathipadu Assembly Constituency was established, comprising Prathipadu firka in Guntur taluk, Nadendla firka, and six villages in Narasaraopet firka in Narasaraopet taluk. The six villages from Narasaraopet firka are:&lt;br /&gt;
* Dondapadu&lt;br /&gt;
* Kondakavur&lt;br /&gt;
* Ellamanda&lt;br /&gt;
* Kesanipalle&lt;br /&gt;
* Pothavarappadu&lt;br /&gt;
* Jonnalagadda.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Delimitation Order, 1967, pp. 22, 31.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In the 1976 delimitation of parliamentary and assembly constituencies, the Prathipadu Assembly Constituency was formed with Prathipadu firka and Pedakakani firka (excluding the villages of Kopparavur, Venigandla, Pedakakani, Nambur, Kantamraju-Kondur, Penumuli, and Devarayabhotlapalem) in Guntur taluk.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Delimitation Order, 1976.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; The latest delimitation was done in 2008.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Mandals ==&lt;br /&gt;
It was formed with five &amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[Tehsil|mandals]]&amp;#039;&amp;#039; of Guntur district in 2009.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite book|title=DELIMITATION OF PARLIAMENTARY AND ASSEMBLY CONSTITUENCIES ORDER, 2008|url=https://www.eci.gov.in/Documents/Delimitation/DelimitationofParliamentaryAssemblyConstituenciesOrder-2008(English).pdf|publisher=The Election Commission of India}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
