  1. There were 2 Chief Ministers in Andhra pradesh in nthe year 1984.

    While N.T. Rama Rao was the Chief Minister from 9th January, 1983 to 16th August 1984, Mr. Nadendla Bhasker Rao was the Chief Minister from 16th August 1984 to 16th September, 1984.  

    Mr. N.T. Rama rao again become chief Minister from 16th September, 1984 to 2nd December, 1989.

    After one and half years of the TDP’s rule the main opposition party, Congress (I) pulled a coup on the NTR government in August 1984. Congress (I) gave support to Bhaskara Rao's group within TDP at a time when NTR was away in the US to undergo a heart surgery. Since Congress was in power at the center and their nominee occupied the AP Governor's post, Bhaskara Rao became CM of Andhra Pradesh.

    At a national level, seventeen opposition parties, including the CPI, CPI(M), BJP and the Janata criticized Congress (I}'s move and launched a ‘Save democracy movement’, leading to massive anti-Congress and anti-Centre protest against the dismissal of the TDP government. NTR returned back from US, wore black clothes and launched a state-wide yathra to protest the dismissal of his government. He called it a dharma yuddham (a war for justice), a war against the authoritarian and autocratic rule at the Centre, for restoration of democracy and safeguarding the Constitution. The central government, fearing damage to party's image with general election less than a year away, recalled the governor and reinstalled NTR as CM - the only instance in political history of India when a dismissed CM was reinstated.
