\nPESHAWAR
\nAdviser 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 \u201ca political script\u201d and \u201cdetached from reality.\u201d
\nIn 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. \u201cThe Gallup survey is like a snake in the mouth of a peacock\u2014Maryam Nawaz is sitting in the mouth of Gallup and spewing political venom,\u201d he remarked.
\nHe dismissed the survey results as fabricated, stating that such tactics cannot suppress the popularity of PTI or its leader, Imran Khan. \u201cPolitical narratives are not built through surveys, but through the votes of the people,\u201d he added.
\nDr. Saif also criticized the omission of public grievances from the survey, particularly regarding the conditions in Sindh and South Punjab. \u201cWhy didn\u2019t Gallup seek public opinion on the garbage crisis in Karachi or the neglect of South Punjab?\u201d he questioned.
\nCalling the Gallup report a \u201ccomedy drama\u201d orchestrated by a \u201cfake government,\u201d 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.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
