Background
editPrior to 2004 Andhra Pradesh Legislative Assembly elections a pre-poll alliance was formed by the Indian National Congress, Telangana Rashtra Samithi, Communist Party of India and Communist Party of India (Marxist) to contest in the elections against the sole incumbent contender Telugu Desam Party.[4] The pre-poll alliance succeeded in forming a new government in the state of Andhra Pradesh. Y. S. Rajasekhara Reddy formed a council of ministers consisting of 24 members initially and later expanding it twice once to induct the alliance partner TRS into the cabinet and several other members.[5] Pre-poll partner TRS joined the government with six ministers and quit the government later citing differences due to the Telangana issue with the Indian National Congress.[6][7][8][9][10][11]
