Three Stage Nuclear Power Programme

The Three Stage Nuclear Power Programme is India's plan to develop self-sufficient nuclear energy. It starts with using natural uranium to generate electricity. Next, it shifts to advanced reactors that can produce plutonium, a fuel source. Finally, it aims to develop fast breeder reactors that convert non-usable uranium into more fuel, ensuring a long-term, sustainable energy supply. This strategy reduces reliance on imported fuel and utilizes India's uranium resources efficiently. It's a step-by-step approach to build a safe, efficient, and independent nuclear energy system for the future.
