In the 1989 Andhra Pradesh Assembly election, Congress(I) swept the polls, winning 181 of the 294 seats in the Assembly.[3] As the leader of the Congress Legislature Party, [[Marri Chenna Reddy]] was elected the Chief Minister. The TDP won only 74 seats from the 216 seats won by it in 1985 because of so much anti on TDP.[4]
General Elections were held in the same year and resulted in the INC(I) winning in 39 out of 42 Lok Sabha constituencies. Its rival, the TDP won only in 2 Lok Sabha constituencies.
