However, the central rule will continue in the residual Andhra Pradesh till TDP chief N Chandrababu Naidu takes charge as Chief Minister a week later.
A notification has been issued early today revoking President's Rule in Telangana to facilitate Rao in taking charge as the first Chief Minister of the country's 29th state, a Home Ministry official said.

Rao's party Telangana Rashtra Samiti won 63 of the 119 assembly seats in Telangana in the recent elections while Naidu's Telugu Desam Party, along with ally BJP, bagged 106 of the 175 assembly seats in Seemandhra.
