Content: ADVERTISEMENTS: The executive branch includes the chief executive, the ministers and the entire body of civil servants or governmental officials of all categories. The chief executive may be a President who enjoys nominal powers or he may be exercising real powers like the American President. No state can exist without the executive. If the executive breaks down, the government disappears. The modern executive is very powerful in comparison to the other two organs of the government. The main function of the executive is to enforce the will of the people as expressed in laws, to administer policies and to enforce the decisions of the judiciary. The executive is growing in importance as it provides leadership to the government. With the ever widening sphere of its activities, the executive has naturally become the most important branch of government. Formally, supremacy may rest with the legislature but in practice, it is the executive which is all important.
