Heard the parties. 2. It is the grievance of the petitioners that the order passed in Annexure-5 by the Administrator, Ranchi Municipality has not been executed in spite of several representations and request made by the petitioners. 3. It is the grievance of the petitioners that by the aforesaid order, the illegal structure was directed to be removed but till date it is not been done. 4. After going through the main petition and the prayer 2026:JHHC:16614 2 made by the petitioners, it gives an impression that the petitioners wants that the order passed by the Administrator, Ranchi Municipality on 16.06.2025 in U.C. Case No.17 of 2023 be executed. 5. Though this Court sitting in jurisdiction under Article 226 of the Constitution cannot be said to be Executing Court of any order passed by Municipal Commissioner or Municipality but yet this Court cannot lose sight of the fact that the authorities are duty bound to comply the orders which they have passed. The authorities must ensure that if they pass an order, the order must be given effect to, otherwise there is no reason to pass any order which remains in paper. 6. Considering the aforesaid fact, I direct the petitioners to approach the Secretary, Urban Development and Housing Department, Government of Jharkhand within one week from today along with the copy of this order and the Annexure-5 of this writ petition i.e., order dated 16.06.2025 passed in U.C. Case No.17 of 2023. 7. The Secretary, Urban Development and Housing Department, will ensure that if there are no other legal impediment and if this order has attained finality, the same should be executed and complied with within three weeks thereafter. It will be solemn responsibility of the Secretary to ensure such compliance. 8. With the aforesaid observations, this writ petition stands disposed of.
