Answer: B
Explanation: The Andhra Pradesh High Court at the newly formed capital Amaravati came into existence from 1 January 2019.

With this the erstwhile Hyderabad High Court ceased to exist. Telangana High Court thus became the 25th High Court of India. It is worth mentioning that the advocates and legal fraternity have been demanding separate high court for Telangana ever since the separate state was carved out in 2014. However, the things moved fast after Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Chandra Babu Naidu gave in writing that the High Court in his state Capital, Amaravati will be readied by 31 December 2018.
