Explanation:

Recently, the Supreme Court has allowed the Union Government to replace the oversight committee set up to supervise the functioning of the Medical Council of India (MCI) with a fresh panel of five eminent doctors to reduce corruption in the functioning of the body. SC took this initiative under the powers assigned to it under A142 of the constitution.
