The Kankipadu constituency was first created for the Madras State Legislative Assembly in 1952 by the 1951 delimitation.[3] After the passing of the States Reorganisation Act, 1956, it became a part of the new Andhra Pradesh Legislative Assembly.[4] After the passing of the Delimitation of Parliamentary and Assembly Constituencies Order, 1976, its extent was the Kankipadu, Poranki and Vijayawada firks in Vijayawada taluk excluding vijayawada municipality of Krishna district.[2]
