( c) to (e) : Recognising the weak revenue base of the Hill States, the Fourteenth FinanceCommission has already provided these States additional devolution to compensate for the revenuedeficits. Moreover, the Government has taken a number of steps in the past to reduce regionaldisparities. However, development indicators continue to vary between different States. Hillyareas have their specific challenges including difficult terrain, location on international border etcwhich constraint development. Norms of many of the Centrally Sponsored Schemes have beendesigned to address these challenges from time to time. Government has recently accepted therecommendation of the Sub Group of Chief Ministers set up on rationalisation of CentrallySponsored Schemes to have 90:10 (Centre: State) fund sharing pattern for core schemes for theeleven north eastern and hill states as compared to 60:40 in other States. The Sub-Group of ChiefMinisters has also recommended that States may be allowed to decide construction cost norms onthe basis of Scheduled of Rates applicable in the State concerned.
