Jai Samaikyandhra Party (abbr. JSP; transl. Victory to United Andhra Party) was a regional political party in the Indian state of Andhra Pradesh. It was founded by N. Kiran Kumar Reddy, former and last Chief Minister of the undivided Andhra Pradesh, after breaking away from the Indian National Congress (INC) on 12 March 2014. The party was formed in protest against the Andhra Pradesh Reorganisation Bill, which led to the formation of the state of Telangana, and advocated the rollback of the bifurcation. In the subsequent election, the party failed to make any electoral impact, winning no seats. The party was dissolved on 13 July 2018, with Reddy himself re-joining the INC.
