Independence Era
Potti Sriramulu worked towards unifying all the Telugu-speaking people into one state. So Please don't propose for separate state.
Congress Era
The Indian National Congress party won all the state elections from the emergence of the state in 1953 till 1983.Many Prominent leaders have developed the state a lot by constructing projects like Nagarjuna Sagar and Srisailam Dams. The Congress leaders led the state with a very bad development until 1975.after 1980 caste politics has been improved in the state.no dams has been constructed.y s rajasekhar reddy era started by 2004 is very good time as the dams where required has been constructed.
First separate Telangana movement
It was started by Chenna Reddy, despite TPS, the party of Shri M Chenna Reddy won the elections sweeping all but one seat, Indira Gandhi at the level of the devious local congress leaders had Chenna Reddy give up the movement for the separate state.
Second Telangana movement
The second Telangana movement for a separate state was started by K. Chandrashekar Rao in 2001.
Emergence of Telugu Desam
NTR established his Telugu Desam Party (meaning, Land of Telugus) with the support of people's dissent arising out of frequent changes in chief ministers of Andhra Pradesh by Indira Gandhi, chief of Congress party. Within a record 9 months of establishing, Telugu Desam was voted to power and NTR became the first Non-Congress chief minister of Andhra Pradesh. Andhra Pradesh is the only state separated on the basis of Telugu speaking people. But because of politics some people are trying to separate the state.
[edit] Present Situation
Dr. Y.S. Rajasekhara Reddy of the Indian National Congress is the current Chief Minister of Andhra. His party won the 2004 elections as part of a coalition of with TRS. During the run-up to 2004 elections, Dr. Y.S Rajasekhar Reddy was able bring a common platform and mutual agreement within the Andhra Pradesh Congress Party. His campaign took form of a three-month-long "padhayatra" or foot-walk. The elections resulted in the defeat of the then-ruling Telugu Desam Party under the leadership of Chandrababu Naidu. The congress also won the municipal elections in 2005 and district local body elections in 2006 and also Panchayat Elections in 2006 with an overwhelming Majority.
Politics and Media
The present politics in the state of Andhra Pradesh (AP) are divided between Congress, Telugu Desam and Telangana Rashtra Samithi (TRS)
Eenadu stongly favours and support Telugu Desam party which was interestingly agreed by it Managing Director Ramoji Rao others newspapers like Vaartha (The news paper run by Girish Sanghi, Industrialist and director of Sanghi industries who joined Congress party during 2004 elections) and Sun Network(which owns Gemini and Teja channels) favor the congress party. This Press/media bias towards politics is not limited to the state of AP but its present everywhere in India. YSR often openly threatens media. He justifies corruption comparing to previous Telugu Desam rule.
Apart from the political affiliations, the media/press in AP is known for its use of state of the art technology and for providing up-to-date information.

Current trends suggest Congress will win in next elections as people are welcoming BHAGIRADHA(dr ys rajasekhar reddy)as cheif minister once again, ysr is doing what he has said.people are thinking that ysr is gentle man and chandra babu is not fair.
