There’s alot of criticism that comes to political parties and government, many discuss the shortcomings and others speak of them with hope.
But what do the civilians say?
Gallup Pakistan, the Pakistani affiliate of Gallup International Association, has released Public Pulse 2020 ratings which inquired Pakistanis about the federal government’s performance.
During the survey, people were asked three questions regarding the current government’s performance. The results are not encouraging as most of the survey participants are unhappy with the performance of the government thus far.
Question 1
Please tell, to what extent you are satisfied or dissatisfied with the performance of the Pakistan Tehreek e Insaaf government?
Nearly 66% of Pakistanis responded that they are dissatisfied with the government’s performance while 32% Pakistanis appeared content with the government.

Question 2
Some people think that the current PTI government’s performance till now is better than that of the previous government while some think that it is worse than the previous government. What is your opinion about this?
Around 59% of Pakistanis responded that the performance of the incumbent government is worse than the previous government. Which is perhaps in many ways a shocking result.

Question 3
Do you think that our country is in the right direction or in the wrong direction?
Here are the detailed results for this question:
- 62% feel that the country is headed in the wrong direction.
- 35% feel the country is headed in the right direction.
- 3% did not respond to the question.

This detailed research shows that there’s a lot that the government still has to do.
