Did you file a divorce case? and the order is interim maintenance order?

Without detail discussion proper consult is not possible.

Sir,

Of course you could take action by withdrawing all money from the account. Or on a serious note, freeze the account showing your order, and if the bank refuses to freeze, you may approach the court. You may contact me if you wish to take any permanent solution.

First send a formal letter to your wife requesting to give her consent to strike out her name from the joint bank account.If she will willing to do so then make a formal application to the Bank officials requesting them to strike her name from the joint bank account.
Thanks.

If you are the first name holder of your joint accout then you are responsible for that account regarding income tax and others . So you can at any time apply before the bank for removal of your wife's name from the said account.
