Approach to State and District Planning from the spatial standpoint needs social planning. Economic development plans have so far paid only marginal attention to social development problems. Social development plan differs from economic development plan and requires a different calculus of planning. The tools of analysis differ and so too are the concepts. However, social development is as much a pre-requisite for economic growth as is economic development. In this functional approach to social development planning certain theoretical objectives methodological issues and outlines of poHcy are discussed. The Constitution makers hare given specific attention to social planning.
