1999 Andhra Pradesh Legislative Assembly election

The 1999 Andhra Pradesh Legislative Assembly election was held on September 21, 1999, to elect representatives to the 10th Legislative Assembly of Andhra Pradesh. This election was conducted amidst significant political turbulence and marked a critical phase in the state's political landscape following the 1998 elections, which resulted in a hung assembly. The incumbent Telugu Desam Party (TDP), led by N. Chandrababu Naidu, sought re-election against a backdrop of economic reforms and infrastructure development initiatives. The Indian National Congress, under the leadership of its state president, faced challenges in consolidating its base. The election resulted in a decisive victory for the TDP, which won 180 out of 294 seats, consolidating Naidu’s position as Chief Minister and further promoting the party's vision of development in Andhra Pradesh.
