Solution

The correct option is A To remember the formation of Andhra Pradesh.
On 1 November 1996, "Telangana Vidroha Dinam" was observed to remember the formation of the state of Andhra Pradesh. It was observed in Warangal by a group of intellectuals headed by Prof. Jayashankar. This further gave rise to several popular meetings, which led to the formation of multiple organisations to demand the formation of a separate Telangana state.
