Overview
The Ministry of Social Justice & Empowerment is the nodal Ministry to oversee the interests of the Scheduled Castes and Other Backward classes. Though the primary responsibility for promotion of interests of the Scheduled Castes and Other Backward classes rests with all the Central Ministries in the area of their operations and the State Governments, the Ministry complements their efforts by way of interventions in critical sectors through specifically tailored schemes. Efforts made by State Governments and Central Ministries for protecting and promoting the interests of Scheduled Castes and Other Backward classes are also monitored. The Ministry of Social Justice & Empowerment is entrusted with the empowerment of the disadvantaged and marginalized sections of the society. The target groups of the Ministry are:

The Ministry has been implementing various programmes/schemes for social, educational and economic development of the target groups. The empowerment of the weaker sections has been a priority area of concern for the Government since independence.
