Andhra Pradesh Reorganisation Act

The Andhra Pradesh Reorganisation Act of 2014 was a law passed by the Indian Parliament to divide the state of Andhra Pradesh into two separate states: Andhra Pradesh and Telangana. This division aimed to address regional differences and promote development in both regions. The act outlined the administrative, financial, and legal arrangements necessary for the split, including the distribution of assets, government structures, and boundaries. It officially came into effect on June 2, 2014, establishing Telangana as the 29th state of India, while Andhra Pradesh continued as the residuary state.
