Unpopular order given by person in charge (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

diktat

(Other definitions for diktat that I've seen before include "Harsh order, allowing no discussion" , "Harsh order given by someone with authority" , "Forceful order that must be obeyed" , "Order allowing no opposition" , "Strict order" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
