Andhra Pradesh Development: Explore for Economic Equality and Social Justice. Planning has traditionally focused on the need to provide special support to historical disadvantaged groups. The Scheduled Castes (SCs) and Scheduled Tribes (STs), have a special status under the Constitution. Other disadvantaged groups needing special support are other Backward Classes (OBCs), Minorities and also other marginalized and vulnerable groups which suffer from handicaps such as persons with disabilities, senior citizens, street children, beggars and victims of substance abuse. Across social groups, the incidence of poverty has been most pronounced among the SCs and STs. Even through the incidence of poverty among these groups has declined over the years, the Head Court Ratio (HCR) for SCs and STs remains higher than the national average. Over the years several steps have been taken to bridge the gap between these marginalized groups and the rest of the population. But the gaps still persist and further efforts are needed.In last 70 years, many Government Institutions, Private Institutions and Non-governmental organization came to existence. We found capitalism brought extreme inequalities, due to lack of good governance and ethical behavior among top leaders. The Reservation System failed to deliver equality and social justice. At present, we have to go for alternative methodologies like universal Basic income and below Rs2.5 lakhs household have get all benefits. So that they can live in sustainable development without hunger and poverty. The political will and revolutionary methodology are highly needed in this hour of context, to bring economic equality and social justice as on before 2047 year.
