Telangana State Formation Day is a special occasion celebrated annually on June 2. It marks the
formation of the Indian state of Telangana, which was officially established on
June 2, 2014. This day holds great significance for the people of Telangana as
it symbolises their struggle and achievements in attaining statehood.
The Date: June 2
Telangana officially became the 28 state of India on June 2, 2014. This
day is etched in history as a culmination of years of struggle and aspirations
for a separate state identity.
A Look Back: The History of Telangana
The region of Telangana has a rich cultural heritage and a distinct identity. However, for many years, it was part of the larger Andhra Pradesh state. People from Telangana felt that their development needs and cultural specificities weren't being adequately addressed. This led to a long-standing demand for a separate Telangana state.
The Telangana movement gained momentum over the years, with peaceful
protests and demonstrations. Finally, in 2014, the Indian Parliament passed the
Andhra Pradesh Reorganisation Act, paving the way for the creation of Telangana
as a separate state.
Significance of Telangana Formation Day
Telangana Formation Day holds immense significance for the people of the
state. It's a day to:
- Commemorate the sacrifices made
by those who fought for a separate state.
- Celebrate the unique culture and heritage of
Telangana.
- It marks the beginning of a new era for
the state, filled with hope and opportunities.
Celebrations in Telangana
On Formation Day, the state comes alive with festivities. The national flag is hoisted across government buildings and public places. Cultural events, parades, and speeches mark the occasion. It's a day to honour the state's history, achievements, and bright future.
Telangana Formation Day is a

self-determination. It's a day of pride for the people of Telangana and a
