>>Some erroneous figures were cited in the editorial on mango exports, “ >Sour turn in India-EU trade ” (May 2, 2014). Editorial writer’s clarification: “Total Indian exports to EU countries in 2012-13 was only 4,071 tonnes. The figure of 16 million mentioned was not in terms of tonnes but absolute number of mangoes exported to the United Kingdom alone. Total exports of mangoes from India in 2012-13 added up to only 55,584.98 tonnes (according to data from the Agricultural and Processed Food Products Export Development Authority), and it is unlikely that the figure would go up to 70,000 tonnes this year.”
>>A sentence in “ >Train tragedies that shook State ” (May 2, 2014, some editions) read: “Bomb culture was something unheard of in the State till an explosive went off in a carriage of the Tiruchi – Erode passenger … on December 23, 1985 . The year was 1986 .
>>The report, “ >OPCW team to probe Syria ‘chemical bomb’ attack " (May 1, 2014, International page), referred to the establishment of a fact-finding team of weapons inspectors by the Brussels-based Organisation for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW). Actually, the organisation is located in The Hague, Netherlands.
