ISLAMABAD: Higher Education Commission (HEC) has sent the list of 54 former lawmakers holding fake degrees to the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP), Geo News reported Saturday.

A good move! What about another 180 MPs who have not yet confirmed their degrees from HEC? They should be disqualified too!

This is the reason we need these street thugs to be out from politics and this is the reason we need IK to bring qualified people to such important positions.
