Corrections and clarifications

* * In “Clearing the air” (Editorial, April 11, 2008), a sentence in the first paragraph was “The Supreme Court has now ruled that for Central institutions, the categories excluded from reservations would be on the basis of the 1993 order that would include: children of constitutional office holders such as the President, judges of the Supreme Court and High Courts; Class I officers; army officers of the rank of colonel and above; professionals such as lawyers, doctors, and chartered accountants; persons earning incomes of over Rs.1 lakh; and large landowners.” The original office order dated September 8, 1993, mentioned the figure Rs.1 lakh, which was subsequently raised to Rs. 2.50 lakh.

* * A report “Family cards to be issued in 60 days” (Tamil Nadu editions, April 9, 2008, page 1) gave the number for the Coimbatore complaint cell as 2230569. It should have been 0422-2300569.
