Unless you have some documents to show that action of ASI of Police is prima facie against law, you will not be able to get sanction. You need to apply to the Home Department of Kerala seeking permission to prosecute the government official. The government would not give permission so easily.
You may challenge the FIR in High Court under Section 482 of Cr.P.C. If the FIR is quashed then you would have good grounds to seek permission.

Do you have any documentary evidences to show that the ASI had given false reports for dragging your client. Then you can file a petition u/s 340 cr.p.c. r/w 193 IPC before the Jurisdictional Magistrate.
