THE state government will not implement its decision to abolish police guard of honour at religious ceremonies. Devaswom Minister V N Vasavan told TNIE the decision to abolish guard of honour will not be implemented for the time being. "The practice will continue. Though a direction was made, it has not been implemented. Any future decision will be taken only after consultation with temple authorities," he said.

Currently, guard of honour is performed at about 20 temples in the Tranvancore-Cochin region. These include Sree Padmanabhaswamy (for festivals and processions), Thiruvallam Vellayani Devi Temple, Haripad Subrahmanya Temple, Tripunithura Poornathrayeesa Temple, Ernakulam Shiva Temple, Palluruthy Alangad Bhagavathy Temple, Thrissur Oorakam Ammathiruvadi Temple and Thriprayar Sree Rama Temple.
