India's ballistic missile defence shield was ready for deployment and it could be put in place at short notice, a top military scientist said on Sunday.

We are ready to put phase one in place and it can be put in very short time," the chief of India's Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO), VK Saraswat, told the media in the national capital.
