Detailing the plans further, Mr. Selvamurth said that under the new plan DRDO would sub-contract its works to the universities during the XI plan.It must be noted that the DRDO had set up a Life Sciences Centre in Bharatiyar University, Coimbatore, at an investment of Rs.18 crore during the X Plan. Now during the XI Plan, it expects the seeding technologies to come from the universities.
