After the reconstitution of constituencies in 2009 and subsequent defeat of TDP in Repalle, probable retirement of Mummaneni Venkata Subbaih (Then TDP candidate) brought Anagani Satya Prasad into the political arena. The decision of TDP to allot 100 seats to BCs then was an enabling factor for him. In 2009 he contested the elections but lost. But he emerged victorious in the 2014 and 2019 elections.
