Telangana Formation Day History and Significance

Telangana was only a larger part of the Andhra Pradesh state for so many years, but the region has its own rich and known culture, heritage, and unique identity. At that period, all the citizens of Telangana state thought that their needs for the state's development and the cultural specificities were not adequately addressed as they should be, ultimately leading to the decision to demand a separate Telangana state. This state had all the properties and demonstrations for a very long period. Finally, in 2014, the Indian parliament passed the Andhra Pradesh Reorganisation Act, a clear signal to form the Telangana state.Ā June 2025 Celestial Events: Full Strawberry Moon, June Bootid Meteor Shower, Summer Solstice and More – Know Dates, Best Viewing Times and Locations
