The petitioner had argued that Khursheed’s law degree was fake and he should be disqualified under Articles 62 and 63.

Khursheed claimed to have received a law degree from London but it could not be verified.

He had been in office since December 2020 and had been a close aide of the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) founder and former prime minister.
