AP-telangana

As June 2nd is the appointed day, Telangana formation day is celebrated on that day every year from now. But what is the formation day of Andhra Pradesh. So far November 1st is the formation day of Andhra Pradesh. In 1953, Andhra got separated from Tamil Nadu on October 1st. And on November 1st, 1953 along with Telangana, Andhra Pradesh is formed and from then AP formation day is celebrated on November 1st every year.

But now as Telangana is again being divided from Andhra Pradesh, experts say November 1st no longer can be considered as the formation day of Andhra Pradesh. Some say November 8th, the swearing-in date of Chandra Babu Naidu is an auspicious day and Andhra Pradesh formation day will be celebrated on the same day every year. And some say the October 1st on which Andhra got separated from Tamil Nadu will be an appropriate date. A decision regarding this had to be taken by the new government.
