Telangana became India’s 28th state on June 2, 2014, after separating from Andhra Pradesh. The day is celebrated as Telangana Formation Day to honour the people's efforts in creating a distinct state. Historically, Telangana and Andhra Pradesh were merged into one Telugu-speaking state on November 1, 1956, before Telangana gained separate statehood. The formation day is commemorated with grand events in various locations, such as Gun Park in Nampally and Parade Grounds in Secunderabad, reflecting the cultural and political significance of the region’s establishment.
