Explanation

The Supreme Court has the authority to decide what constitutes an 'office of profit' under Article 102(1)(a) and 191(1)(a) of the Constitution. This disqualification provision has been judicially interpreted in several landmark cases, and the Court's word is final on whether a particular position falls under this category.
