Claim
houses more than 1,800,000 books
Correction

The Goa State Central Library’s collection is about 1.8 lakh books, not 1.8 million.

Full reasoning

This sentence appears to have inflated the library’s holdings by a factor of ten. Official Goa government sources describe the Krishnadas Shama Goa State Central Library as having more than 1.8 lakhs of books—that is, about 180,000 books, not 1,800,000.

Evidence:

  • The library’s own official history page says: “The library has more than 1.8 lakhs of books in different languages...”
  • A Government of Goa citizen charter likewise states: “State Central Library has more then 1.8 Lakhs book collection...”

So the article’s claim that the library “houses more than 1,800,000 books” is incorrect; it should be roughly 180,000 books.

Claim
Government of Japan's Furushima Prefecture region
Correction

Japan has no “Furushima Prefecture”; the prefecture involved was Fukushima.

Full reasoning

The place name in this sentence is incorrect. Japan’s prefectural governments include Fukushima Prefecture, but there is no Japanese prefecture called “Furushima.”

A source on the new-capital proposal itself describes it as an urban proposal for a new administrative capital city in Fukushima prefecture, Japan. Separately, the National Diet Library’s official list of Japanese local governments identifies Fukushima as one of Japan’s 47 prefectures. That means the article’s wording “Furushima Prefecture region” is factually wrong and should read Fukushima Prefecture.
