Seema: What makes you think something is wrong with the query?
 Tanel: Are you sure about that? See this example in Oracle 9.2.0.4 Windows XP
SQL> describe x
 Nom                            NULL ?   Type
 ------------------------------ -------- ------------
 CATEGORY                                NUMBER

SQL> select * from x ;
 CATEGORY
---------
        1
        2

SQL> select category from x where category = 1 ;
 CATEGORY
---------
        1
SQL>

CATEGORY is a reserved word (you can check it from v$reserved_words).

Use ...WHERE "CATEGORY" = :b1 or rename the column...
