Abstract
One of the main agendas of our freedom struggle was to have socio-economic freedom and equality for all irrespective of the caste, race, religion, sex or so on. Thus, ever since India got Independence and Constitution of India was enacted, the hopes and aspirations of the weaker sections increased manifold for socio-economic development, social freedom and social transformations. The Government of India too, inspired by the struggle for independence, attempted within its limited economic and other resources to ameliorate the destitute conditions of the downtrodden India, with various plans, schemes and programmes, apart from the socio-economic reservations. In this article, thus, an attempt is being made to examine the developmental process of India with references to the weaker sections such as Scheduled Tribes, Scheduled Castes and other backward classes. It is observed from various studies that despite some noble schemes and programmes, the plight of the weaker sections has not transformed into satisfactory levels mainly on account of the failure of implementation process. These issues are critically examined here in this small piece of article.
