Srinivaspur Assembly constituency is one of the seats in Karnataka Legislative Assembly in India. It is part of Kolar Lok Sabha constituency. Venkata Shiva Reddy is the incumbent MLA, elected in 2023.

The election in 2023 was the tenth consecutive time that K. R. Ramesh Kumar and Venkata Shiva Reddy had contested against each other, K. R. Ramesh Kumar winning five times and Venkata Shiva Reddy also winning five times. Ramesh Kumar has won this seat one more time but against another candidate.[2] K. R. Ramesh Kumar became speaker of the assembly in 2018, and was in the news when a no-onfidence motion against H. D. Kumaraswamy in 2019 dragged out too long, resulting in a clash between the governor and the government. K. R. Ramesh Kumar stepped down as speaker after his coalition was reduced to a minority.
