Mr Reddy represented Rayachoti as an MLA for three successive terms starting from 2009 to 2019.

On 1 April 2017, Reddy demanded that Tirupati be made the second capital of Andhra Pradesh.[3] Gadikota Srikanth Reddy was appointed as the chief whip of the YSR Congress party led state government in Andhra Pradesh.[4]
