>>The report, “ >TN results will have a bearing on Rajya Sabha ” (May 17, 2016), said: “Given the six vacancies, official sources said each candidate may have to secure a minimum of 33 votes to win. … If it {the Congress] does not have the required 33 votes, the party would have to depend on the DMK to win one of the seats.” The correct figure is 34 votes and not 33.

>>A sentence in “ >A house for every hill-country Tamil ” (Perspective page, May 17, 2016) read: “Four thousand houses, however, are just a fraction of what is required: at least 1.6 million houses.” It should have been 1.6 lakh , not million , houses.

>>A sentence in “ >ISRO’s Reusable Launch Vehicle to take off next week ” (May 17, 2016) read: “Also, while an LV experiences limited flight regime of say Mach 0 to Mach 2 or so, the RLV experiences a much wider range of flight regimes.” It should have been aircraft not LV .
