Hi Krishnan 

Try this
  
String objName = 'Contact';
string alphaSearchConct = 'A%';
String fieldNames = 'name,id ';
list<sObject> ct = Database.query('SELECT '+ fieldNames +'FROM '+ objName +' WHERE lastname Like :alphaSearchConct');

Here is the code
  
String objName = 'Contact';
string alphaSearchConct = 'A';
String fieldNames = 'name,id';
String query = 'SELECT '+ fieldNames +' FROM '+ objName +' WHERE lastname like \'%'+alphaSearchConct +'%\'' ; 
System.debug('query'+query);
list<sObject> ct = Database.query(query);
