India’s Native Fast Breeder Reactor Reaches First Criticality: 5 Things to Know
- Wednesday April 8, 2026
- Written by Akash Dutta, Edited by Ketan Pratap
India has reached a significant milestone in its nuclear programme. On Tuesday, the Prototype Fast Breeder Reactor (PFBR) attained first criticality, an important stage where the reactor generates more fuel than it burns. Now that the PFBR is capable of sustained nuclear chain reaction, the programme will move towards the next stage, where it will ...
