A recent Gilani poll conducted by Gallup Pakistan shows that, while a vast majority of all Pakistanis (80%) claim solar eclipse is a natural process, one fifth (19%) believe it to be a bad omen. This notion is supported by mostly older people. The remaining 1% of the respondents gave no response.
The recent Gilani poll was conducted in Pakistan by Gallup Pakistan, affiliated with Gallup International Association, among a sample of 2581 men and women from rural and urban areas of all four provinces of the country, during February 2010.
