Donepudi Siva Rama Krishna Prasad

I am Donepudi Siva Rama Krishna Prasad, born on 4 January 1972 in the peaceful village of Koyyagurapadu in Unguturu Mandal of Krishna District, Andhra Pradesh, into a humble farming family that instilled in me the values of integrity, hard work, and service to society. My educational journey from Zilla Parishad High School, Unguturu, to completing ITI at Sri Venkateswara Industrial Training Institute, Gannavaram, and later earning a Diploma from JNTU Hyderabad, shaped my belief that technical knowledge and grassroots understanding must go hand in hand for true societal transformation. I began my professional career with Kapston Security Private Limited in Miyapur, Hyderabad, where I gained practical exposure to administration, discipline, and organisational efficiency.

My political journey commenced in 1991 with the Telugu Desam Party, where I actively worked on student issues, community welfare, and party-building processes. Over the years, I served in several key positions, including TDP Ranga Reddy District Organising Secretary and Division President of Miyapur, where I strived to uphold democratic values and address local concerns. In 2019, inspired by national leadership, I joined the Bharatiya Janata Party and contributed significantly to strengthening its organisational structure as Vice President of Ranga Reddy District from 2021 to 2023. Later, with a renewed commitment to secular ideals, social justice, and inclusive growth, I officially joined the Indian National Congress in 2023 at the hands of Telangana Chief Minister Shri Anumula Revanth Reddy, participating actively in national programs such as the Bharat Jodo Yatra and Hath Se Hath Jodo Abhiyan. Parallel to my political service, I have been deeply engaged in humanitarian work through the Lions Club, holding various leadership roles and receiving prestigious recognitions for community service.

In 2009, driven by a desire to institutionalise long-term social change, I founded the Prasad’s Foundation, under which I continue to serve as Chairman, implementing programs that support healthcare, education, environmental sustainability, women’s empowerment, and relief activities during natural disasters and pandemics. My lifelong mission is to dedicate every effort toward building a society rooted in equality, compassion, and opportunity for all, ensuring that no individual—regardless of their social or economic background—is left behind in the path of progress.
