Andhra Pradesh State had three main cultural regions: Telangana, Coastal Andhra and Rayalaseema.
he Telangana region has an area of 114,840 square kilometres (44,340 sq mi), and a population of 35,286,757 (2011 census) which was 41.6% of Andhra Pradesh state population.
The city of Hyderabad would serve as the joint capital of Telangana and Andhra Pradesh for ten years.
The Telangana Rebellion was a peasant revolt supported by the Communists. It took place in the former princely state of Hyderabad between 1946 and 1951. It was led by the Communist Party of India.
There have been several movements to invalidate the merger of Telangana and Andhra, major ones occurring in 1969, 1972 and 2009.
Proponents of a separate Telangana state cite perceived injustices in the distribution of water, budget allocations, and jobs.
