Khanapur Assembly seat is one of the 224 assembly constituencies in the state of Karnataka in India. It is one of the 8 constituencies which make up Uttara Kannada (Lok Sabha constituency). It has been a stronghold of Maharashtra Ekikaran Samiti (MES) whose candidates tend to contest as independents because it is not officially recognized as a party. In 1962, MES did contest the election under its own official name.
