What Is the History of Andhra Pradesh Formation Day? 

Source: Wikipedia 

The formation of Andhra Pradesh was the culmination of a long struggle by the Telugu people for a separate state. The Telugu people had been demanding a separate state since the early 1900s. The demand for a separate state intensified after India's independence in 1947.

In 1953, Potti Sriramulu went on a hunger strike to demand a separate state for the Telugu people. Sriramulu was a Telugu activist who fasted to death for 56 days demanding a separate state for the Telugu people. Sriramulu's death sparked widespread protests and agitations across the Telugu region.

According to the Frontline Hindu, “Four days after the death of Potti Sreeramulu, Nehru announced the decision to create Andhra. Sreeramulu had fought hard for a separate State for Telugu-speaking people. And on October 1, 1953, Nehru inaugurated the Andhra State.” 

Later, as per the States Reorganisation Act, Andhra Pradesh was formed by merging this Andhra State with Hyderabad State on November 1st, 1956.
