Early life and background
Vangaveeti Radha Krishna was born on 3 November 1979 in Penamalur, Krishna District, Andhra Pradesh. He comes from a family with a political background; his father was the late Vangaveeti Mohana Ranga Rao and his mother is Chennupati Ratna Kumari. He was named after his father’s brother, Vangaveeti Radha Krishna, who was killed in 1974.

Radha Krishna attended Vikas Junior College in Guntur and later enrolled at Vinayaka Mission Medical College in Salem, Tamil Nadu, pursuing medical studies that he discontinued in 1998. He is identified as belonging to the Kapu community. Physical details recorded in available profiles list his height at approximately 173 cm (about 5'8"), with black hair and black eyes.

Career
Radha Krishna has been active in Andhra Pradesh politics and has contested multiple assembly elections representing different parties across his career. He first contested and won the Vijayawada East assembly seat in 2004 on an Indian National Congress ticket. In 2009 he stood from the same constituency on a Praja Rajyam Party ticket but lost to the Congress candidate Malladi Vishnu. He contested again in 2014 on a Yuvajana Sramika Rythu Congress Party ticket and was defeated by the Telugu Desam Party candidate Gadde Rammohan Rao.

Within party structures, Radha Krishna served in organizational roles, including as Vijayawada City President and Vijayawada Central Constituency Coordinator for the YSR Congress Party in 2015. He later joined the Telugu Desam Party in 2019, though he did not receive the TDP ticket for the Vijayawada East seat in the 2019 assembly elections.

Public profile
Radha Krishna’s public life has included legal and political controversies. In 2016 he filed a complaint about the film Vangaveeti, arguing that it misrepresented events related to his father and portrayed him and his associates negatively. In 2017 he and his mother were detained briefly after clashes with police during a protest in Vijayawada that arose from derogatory remarks about his late father made by a rival party member; both were released and the rival was later suspended by his party.

Official records and affidavits list multiple charges registered against Radha Krishna, including counts under various sections of the Indian Penal Code such as unlawful assembly, wrongful restraint, disobedience to public orders, public nuisance, house-trespass, wrongful confinement, obstructing a public servant, negligent conduct with respect to explosive substances, abetment-related provisions, and an attempt to commit suicide.

Personal life
Radha Krishna is unmarried according to available profiles. His immediate family includes his mother Chennupati Ratna Kumari and a sister, Vangaveeti Asha Kiran. Asset declarations from 2014 list movable and immovable assets, with itemized values for cash, shares and bonds, jewellery and non-agricultural land; those declarations provide an approximate net worth figure as of 2014.

Radha Krishna has at times publicly expressed concerns about his personal safety. On the death anniversary of his father in 2021 he made statements about threats to his life; following those remarks the state offered him security cover, which he declined.

Latest updates
Reports from August 2023 indicated that Radha Krishna was set to marry Jakkam Pushpavalli of Narsapuram, West Godavari district, the daughter of a former municipal chairperson. Earlier reactions to his political moves included protests by some family members and supporters when he joined the Telugu Desam Party in 2019.

Radha Krishna’s political journey reflects frequent party changes and localized electoral contests, along with a public profile shaped by family legacy, legal matters and occasional controversies.
