The Indian National Congress won in 119 Assembly constituencies out of the total 142 in which it contested. In comparison, the Communist Party of India performed poorly, winning a mere 15 seats out of all the 167 seats it contested. Dr. Bewazada Gopala Reddy of the INC became the Chief Minister of Andhra State. Sir Chandulal Madhavlal Trivedi was the Governor of AP during the 1955 assembly elections. Dr. Reddy, popularly called Andhra Tagore because of his immense knowledge of Rabindranath Tagore’s works, contributed significantly to the economic, political and cultural stability of Andhra State. He promoted a number of radical economic policies as the Chief Minister of the state and also pioneered the culture of theatre performance and films in the state, through the Sahitya Academy of which he remained the Chairman for a long time.
