In 1956, the Hyderabad State was dissolved as part of the linguistic reorganisation of states and Telangana was merged with the Telugu-speaking Andhra State (part of the Madras Presidency during the British Raj) to form Andhra Pradesh A peasant-driven movement began to advocate for separation from Andhra Pradesh starting in the early 1950s, and continued until Telangana was granted statehood on 2 June 2014 under the leadership of K Chandrashekar RaoThe economy of Telangana is the eighth-largest state economy in India with ₹97 trillion (US$140 billion) in gross domestic product and a per capita GDP of ₹228,000 (US$3,200).
