Duvvada Srinivas was defeated by TDP candidate K Rammohan Naidu with narrow margin of 9,000 votes in the 2019 general elections from the Srikakulam Lok Sabha segment.

As a result of these rifts among the YSRCP leaders, opposition TDP is benefitted in recent gram panchayat elections also. With the announcement of Duvvada Srinivas candidature for the MLC post under the MLAs quota, the election will be a formal procedure. So far, Duvvada Srinivas is representing before officials as an in-charge for Tekkali segment from ruling YSRCP. After the MLC elections, Duvvada will work to prove his stamina which will cause suffocative situation to other leaders from the ruling party in the district.
