Objectives of the Study
The present study broadly seeks to spell out the demographic aspects of scheduled castes and scheduled tribes in Anantapur district. Since agriculture is the predominant occupation of scheduled castes and scheduled tribes, the study also aims to assess the nature of agriculture and the level of agricultural development among the scheduled castes and scheduled tribes. It is very essential to understand the various socio- economic problems which constrains and hinder the social and economic upliftment of these weaker sections. A critical examination and evaluation of both demographic and agrarian structure of the down trodden scheduled castes and scheduled tribes in the district helps to gain insights into the problem and provides the necessary information for planing and development of the scheduled castes and tribes.
