    International Journal of Scientific Research in Science and Technology © 2018 IJSRST | Volume 4 | Issue 11 | Print ISSN: 2395-6011 | Online ISSN: 2395-602X Rethinking of Special Category Status to Poorer States in India Fauzia Tarannum Research Scholar, Department of Pshychology, Magadh University, Bodhgaya, Bihar, India ABSTRACT There are twenty nine states and seven union territories in India. Some States have been provided some benefits by the union government as they fall under the Special Category States. In 1969, the Fifth Finance Commision acting in line to the Gadgil formula, had accorded Special Status to three states namely Assam, Nagaland and Jammu & Kashmir on the basis of hilly terrains, having international boundaries, backwardness and social probles prevailing in these states. As per formula such states get preferential treatment in federal assistance and tax breaks. These states also get excise duty concessions and thus, help to attract large number of industrial units to establish manufacturing factories within their territories. Now many other states have been categorised nder this term like Himachal Pradesh (1970-71) , Manipur, Meghalaya and Tripura (1971-72) Sikkim (1975- 76), Arunachal Pradesh and Mizoram (1986-87) and Uttarakhand (2000-01) INTRODUCTION The government of Bihar has been demanding to rethink on the issue and accord Special Status to Bihar and in the course of time other states followed the line. Resultantly, union government constituted a committee headed by Mr. Raghuram Rajan, now RBI Governer, to suggest ways to identify indicators of the relative backwardness of the states for equitable allocation of Central funds. The committee has proposed an index of backwardness composed of 10 equally weighted indicators for monthly per capita consumption expenditure, education, health, household amenities, poverty rate, female literacy, percentage of the scheduled caste / scheduled tribe population, urbanisation rate, financial inclusion and physical connectivity.
