Celebrating the Telangana Formation Day

The 28th state of India, Telangana, was established on June 2, 2014. Telangana commemorates its founding day to honour the role that its citizens played in creating the state's independence from Andhra Pradesh. The national flag is flown in celebration of this day in each of Telangana's 30 districts. In addition, Telangana recognises and rewards its citizens for outstanding contributions to literature, art, and science.

By constructing that state from former Madras, Telangana and Andhra Pradesh amalgamated on 1 November 1956 to create a single state particularly for the Telugu-speaking population. A protest for a new state took place in the Telangana region in 1969, and a distinct Andhra Pradesh was created in 1972.

The 1969 agitation involved numerous social organisations, student unions, and government personnel.

The Telangana Bill was approved by the Congress Working Committee and the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) in the Lok Sabha in February 2014, following nearly 40 years of opposition. The Andhra Pradesh Reorganisation Act was approved in the same year that the bill was introduced in the Indian Parliament. The bill specifies that Telangana will be made up of ten districts.

Telangana's creation denotes the success of the movement for Telangana. It honours Telangana's formal severance from the Andhra Pradesh state. A 57-year-old movement came to a conclusion on June 2, 2014, fulfilling the dreams of the Telangana people. In addition to giving the locals a distinct identity, the movement changed India's map such that the state's limits could now be seen.

The Prime Minister and President of India, as well as political figures from all around the nation, extend greetings to the people of Telangana on Statehood Day every year.
