Adviser to the Chief Minister of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa on Information and Public Relations, Barrister Dr. Muhammad Ali Saif, has strongly criticized a recent Gallup survey, calling it “a political script” and “detached from reality.”
In a statement issued on Sunday, Dr. Saif alleged that the survey was designed at the behest of multiple governments and aimed at manipulating public opinion. “The Gallup survey is like a snake in the mouth of a peacock—Maryam Nawaz is sitting in the mouth of Gallup and spewing political venom,” he remarked.
He dismissed the survey results as fabricated, stating that such tactics cannot suppress the popularity of PTI or its leader, Imran Khan. “Political narratives are not built through surveys, but through the votes of the people,” he added.
Dr. Saif also criticized the omission of public grievances from the survey, particularly regarding the conditions in Sindh and South Punjab. “Why didn’t Gallup seek public opinion on the garbage crisis in Karachi or the neglect of South Punjab?” he questioned.
Calling the Gallup report a “comedy drama” orchestrated by a “fake government,” Dr. Saif accused the organization of risking its credibility for financial gain. He said attempts to influence public perception through such surveys would ultimately fail, as voters are fully aware of who has undermined their mandate.
