Special Category Status for states is determined by the Planning Commission based on certain criteria like hilly terrain, strategic location, economic backwardness, etc.
Bihar has been arguing for Special Category Status due to its economic backwardness and sluggish growth.
To address this issue, the Bihar government can provide data and evidence to support their demand for Special Category Status.
Political parties like Congress can also put pressure on the central government to reconsider the decision and grant the Special Category Status to Bihar.
Dialogue and negotiation between the state government and the central government can also play a crucial role in addressing this issue.
