Respected Sir
        Thanks for your reply.I am giving a part of my output to clarify my
problem.

 [1]  6 29 27 44 37 43  1 10 26 20

Independent Sampling design
svydesign(id = ~1, weights = rep((N/n), n), fpc = rep(N, n), 
    data = srswor_sample_data)
> print(svyvar(~salary+yrsemp+priorex+educ+super,dsrswor))
         variance         SE
salary 7.1883e+07 2.5445e+07
salary 1.1267e+04 4.8569e+03
yrsemp 9.8333e+00 5.5376e+00
educ   1.1267e+04 4.8569e+03
super  3.2889e+00 1.4384e+00
> print(svyvar(~salary+yrsemp+priorex,dsrswor))
          variance         SE
salary  7.1883e+07 2.5445e+07
yrsemp  5.6732e+04 1.6373e+04
priorex 9.8222e+00 3.9900e+00



Above svyvar returns different results in two different situations(estimates
of population variance of salary).
