Andhra Pradesh government has decided to cancel the celebrations on November 1st on the occasion of AP State formation day.
The United state came in to existence from 1956 November 1st but now that state is not in existence with Telangana getting divided from the residuary state. However the government has not decided when to celebrate the formation day going further now.
There are several options about celebrating the formation day. Some people say that AP should observe October 1 as the formation day as it was on this day that Andhra state was formed after separation from the Madras Presidency in 1953. The state that was formed from Madras Presidency exists today. And there are some people who argue to take the recent appointed day, June 2nd as the formation day.
However few differ with that opinion as the state was still under President’s rule till June 8th. TDP formed the government only on 8th and some say the day on which elected government exists should be considered as the formation day.
