Well, I believe it was because they realized that Pluto is smaller than originally thought. It now longer meets the standards of size to be considered a planet. There are even moons around other planets that are larger than Pluto.

I think pluto was put out because scientists think that it is very small.So scientists imposed a bound on the size of heavenly bodies to put them in the category of planets.I think other heavenly body is added as a planet because it was satisfying their rules to be a planet.

In the astronomical world, Eris stirred up a great deal of trouble among the international astronomical community when the question of its proper designation led to a raucous meeting of the IAU in Prague. At the end of the conference, IAU members voted to demote Pluto and Eris to dwarf-planet status, leaving the solar system with only eight planets.
