He responded, 'Well I am not disturbed but I have always believed when winter comes, can spring be far behind!'
It seems Dr Singh is unrealistically hopeful.
It can be safely said that neither the ongoing summer nor the monsoons that follow are likely to bring the bounce of spring to his government. To size-up prime minister's hopes, just watch how this government is reacting to the Anna Hazare phenomenon.

Biological Speculation, Suicidal Tendencies
I’ve noticed a number of recent articles, talking about the extent to which film PR matters, more so than ever before, and to the extent to which lies, fabrications are manufactured, choreographed and played out, all for a few more free column inches in the hope of putting more asses on seats.
Genuinely good stuff, really showing how all this is supplied in the name of news.
But what is intriguing is how not one of these articles has examined the demand side of it- to put it bluntly, why do editors and publishers go along with this, knowing all along that it is a sham? Do they believe these stories to be true- which seems unlikely, as they are now publishing pieces that take on the falsehood of the entire enterprise."

Gains can be accounted for by the fact that wages are lower and thus companies are able to spend more on supervision and training.
