>>A quote in the report, “ >Lack of data stalls pornography probes ” (August 7, 2014), – “Corporal punishment, use of children for creation of pornography, exposure, … under the IPC” – was wrongly attributed to Vidya Reddy of Tulir - Centre for the Prevention and Healing of Child Sexual Abuse, a non-governmental organisation.

The penultimate paragraph of the report read: “Police officers should be imparted necessary training … , she [Vidya Reddy] said, adding that the integration of technology … changed … manner of sexual offences … against children.” The correct word is intersection .

>>The opening paragraph of “ >No change in UPSC exam dates: Govt. ” (August 7, 2014, front page) referred to the postponement of the UPSC exams slated for next month. It should have been this month.
