During the bifurcation, the ap Reorganisation Act 2014 required that the uniform admissions procedure outlined under Article 371 D of the Constitution continue for both successors states, telangana and andhra pradesh, for a period of ten years beginning in 2014. According to this clause, local candidates are eligible for 85% of the reservation at higher education institutions (HEIs), with the remaining 15% being accessible to all applicants.
