CEO Andhra Pradesh – History of formation of Andhra Pradesh

Telugu people wanted a state of their own with a large territory. They wanted to come out of the Madras state, but wanted the city of Madras in their boundary. After the independence, they claimed to own a state, but the Dar Commission of the Indian Government did not heed to their demands.

Jawaharlal Nehru, Pattabhi Sitaramaiah and Vallabhai Patel wanted the people to renounce the city of Madras. Meanwhile a partition committee was formed by Kumaraswami Raja with the members being Tanguturi Prakasam, B. Gopala Redd, Kala Venkata Rao and N. Sanjiva Reddy. Prakasam had different views among the members of the committee. Indian Government made a quicker profit due to the difference and closed the issue.

However a Gandhian Swami Sitaram undertook fast for nearly 35 days, but the Government did not yield to their desires. Only the hatred was developed in the minds of people which were very well reflected in the 1952 General elections.

Raja Gopala Chari, who became the Chief Minister of the state planned to develop a project to deliver Krishna waters to the bolster the inhabited areas of Tamil People. Telugu people did not like the development of the project and hence the project, which was headed by A. N. Khosla was closed for the time being. A new project sprouted at Nandhikonda.Yet this situation fuelled the desire regarding the formation of a separate state.

Potti  Sriramulu, a Gandhian fasted to death for the creation of the new state. Now the situation got out of control and Jawaharlal Nehru announced the Andhra state would be created with eleven Telugu districts and the three taluks of the Bellary district. Andhra had its capital as Kurnool and T. Prakasam became the first Chief Minister of Andhra.

People rejoiced the creation, but their desire to split the state went on. They dreamt for a new state called Visalandhra. Though Syed Fazl Ali of State Reorganization Commission could venture the gains of Visalandhra, he had a thought of creating a state Telangana. The communists did not like the idea of upbringing of a new state and threatened that they would resign from their posts and conduct elections. But many of the members in Legislative Assembly supported the formation of Visalandhra.

The congress then demanded the to bring down the differences among those who reinforced Telangana and Visalandhra by signing the Gentleman’s agreement. Thus nine districts namely Adilabad, Nizamabad, Medak, Karimnagar, Warangal, Khammam, Nalgonda, Mahabubnagar, were now added to the Andhra state, thus making it much enlarged. This merger was thus called as ‘Andhra Pradesh’

CEO Andhra Pradesh and Other States’ Voting Guidelines

Who can vote?

The members of Lok Sabha and Legislative Assembly are chosen by citizens and people of 18 years and above can cast votes.

Why should we vote?

Also Read:  How to Conduct Search for Voter ID Details Through SMS?

It is the duty and responsibility of every Indian citizen to accomplish the right to vote. Since it is optional many take it for granted and take a rest on the election day. People should understand that every vote can put a right person in power.

How is voting done?

People in India cast their votes using Ballot papers or using Electronic Voting machines.

Data on Electronic Voting machine:

The storage and transportation of Ballot papers, the money paid for the counting of Ballot papers incur a huge cost to the Government. To lessen their grievances, Electronic Voting machine was devised by the Election Commission Of India in alliance with the Bangalore and Electronic Corporation of India and Bharat Electronics Ltd

Though the cost of Electronic voting machine is around rupees 5500 (during 1989-90), it is much less than that of the costs due to the Ballot papers. It has a maximum intake of 3840 votes and 64 candidates.

The machine has two units, namely: Control Unit and Balloting Unit. Control Unit is taken in charge by the polling officer and the balloting unit is given to the voters.

Voting is much easier in the Electronic Voting machines. The voter has to just press the button against the candidate’s name and the party symbol. This method of voting is much better than the conventional ballot paper system.
