Andhra Pradesh loksabha constituents

The 2014 general election was the last election that a united Andhra Pradesh took part in, as the state was bifurcated into Andhra Pradesh and Telangana states less than a month after the polls. In Andhra Pradesh there are 25 loksabha constituencies and were scheduled to go for voting on 7 May 2014 and results are announced on 16 May 2014,[1] and the new state of Telangana was carved out from Andhra Pradesh on 2 June 2014.

Polling

Elections held in 2 phases i.e. 7th and 8th phase of General election 2014 on 30 April, and 7 May 2014.
