In the Coimbatore district which was formed in 1804, present day Coimbatore, Nilgiris, Palakkad, Tirupur, Karur, Erode and Chamrajnagar districts were a part. They were then divided into separate districts for administrative convenience. (1/4)

It was during the BJP rule that the states of Jharkhand, Uttarakhand and Chhattisgarh were carved out from UP, Bihar & Madhya Pradesh into separate states. After the great struggle, Andhra Pradesh was bifurcated under the Congress rule and the state of Telangana was formed. (3/4)
