Barely a few days after the Government of Pakistan held an online Twitter poll to elect Gulab Jamun as its national sweet, a group of social media users and mithai-lovers have protested and rejecting the result.

They claim that restricting the online survey to one social media network was an injustice to other more popular social media networks and mithai lovers and to drive home their point, they ate different mithais of their choice.

Shouting slogans of "Mithai Poll Namanzoor" and "Mithai Poll Dobara Karwao". They even held up placards saying, "Facebook and Instagram should be included in #MithaiPoll", "Barfi is Pakistan's number one sweet", "Yaktarfa #MithaiPoll Namanzoor", "Mithai poll dobara karwaya jai", "Sanghar's special Mawa should be declared national sweet" and "Meri Mithai Meri Marzi".

Protesters further urged the government to hold another poll and include results from other popular social media networks used in Pakistan beyond just Twitter. The previous decision was based on the 15,196 votes it received.
