This is a Meena-dominated constituency. The last election was won by Vasundhara Raje's supporter, Kanwarlal Meena. However, he was convicted by the High Court in a criminal case, resulting in his disqualification from the Assembly. Following this, a by-election was announced. Five elections have been held since the Anta constituency was created. The Anta Assembly constituency was created in 2008. The first election for this seat was held in 2008, in which veteran Congress leader Pramod Jain Bhaya won and became a minister. Subsequently, in 2013, the BJP fielded outsider Prabhulal Saini, who won and became a minister in the Vasundhara Raje government. In 2018, Pramod Jain Bhaya regained the seat and became a minister in the Ashok Gehlot government.
