Crores, occupies a strategic position in the country map linking the
north and the south. The State sprawls across a greater part of
Deccan Plateau, sloping down to embrace the sedate waters of the Bay
of Bengal. Andhra Pradesh was formed on 1-11-1956 as a result of the
integration of nine Telugu districts of the erstwhile Hyderabad
State with the then Andhra State.

State with a synthesis of different Cultures. Andhra Pradesh is
blessed with beautiful countryside, watered by thirty four rivers
which include the Krishna and Godavari, and commands, a coastline of
nearly 1000 kms. This is the land of rocks, forests, hills, lush
green fields, water falls, lakes and golden beaches washed by sea.

India.”

leadership of Sri N.Chandrababu Naidu. Details about A.P
