KOCHI: Coming down heavily on the inaction of the state police in implementing the High Court order to provide security for transporting solid waste to Vilappilsala, the court on Friday observed that the Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) may be asked to provide security for the same.The Thiruvananthapuram Corporation submitted that the police were not extending their full support in executing the court directive in connection with the Vilappilsala garbage issue.The court observed that the intervention of the police in the issue was not satisfactory and hence the Union Government along with the CRPF must be impleaded in the case.The court had earlier directed to provide police protection for running the Vilappilsala treatment plant. A Division Bench Comprising Acting Chief Justice Manjula Chellur and Justice P R Ramachandra Menon adjourned the hearing of the case to next week.Earlier, the residents of the Vilappil panchayat, along with panchayat president Shobhana Kumari, had organised protests blocking the movement of garbage trucks and prevented the implementation of the court order, the petitioner submitted.Due to the non-cooperation of the police, the machinery brought from Pune for the construction of a leachate plant at Vilappilsala could not be taken to the plant. The machinery was unloaded on the corporation office premises.
