State-run Defence Research and Development Organisation and elite National Security Guards (NSG) are planning to work together to deal with terror strikes, a top DRDO official said today.

The Government, during the past six months (apparently after the 26/11 Mumbai attacks), was looking "exclusively" at the role of technology in tackling terror attacks, Chief Controller R & D (Services Interaction), DRDO, Dr Prahlada said here.

"The idea is to deploy low-cost, easily portable and quick manufacturing solutions all over the country to deal with low intensity conflicts and terror attacks," he said.

Prahlada said there has been a lot of interaction between paramilitary forces and defence research labs on technologies aiding anti-terror operations. "NSG visited our (DRDO) labs", he said.

The force was impressed by the DRDO expertise in areas such as lasers, small arms, Improvised Explosive Devices and detection of explosives. "We are thinking of the possibility of working together".
