People from neighboring states have demanded the merging of villages and districts under the Raichur district with Telangana on several occasions. Leaders from Maharashtra's Nanded, Nalgaon, Bhokar, Degloor, Kinwat, and Hathagaon met with Chief Minister K Chandrashekhar Rao in 2019 and requested that their villages be merged in Telangana.
Some parts of Maharashtra and some parts of Karnataka were part of the separatist state of Nizam. However, after the formation of the linguistic states, the Nizam divided the Marathi-speaking areas in Maharashtra and the Kannada-speaking areas in Karnataka.
