THE ORIGIN OF ANDHRA PRADESH
STATE ARCHIVES & RESEARCH INSTITUTE
The origin of the State Archives of Andhra Pradesh dates back to
1894. In that year, the entire records of Daftar-I-Diwani, Daftar-I-mal,
which were under the custody of certain jagirdar families, were taken over by
the Nizam's Government and a new office called Daftar-I-Diwani was created for
the preservation of these records. It was elevated to the status of a
Directorate in 1924 and was redesignated as Central Record Office in 1954 by
the then Government of Hyderabad.
After the formation of Andhra State in 1953, some records
pertaining exclusively to the Andhra Districts were transferred from the Madras
Record Office to the Andhra Record Office at Kurnool.
After the formation of Andhra Pradesh on 1st November 1956,
the Andhra Record Office was merged with the Central Reocrd Office,
Hyderabad. Finally in 1962, the Department was reorganized on the pattern
of National Archives of India.
