Delhi May Attempt First Artificial Rain on October 29 to Tackle Pollution

The Delhi government has announced plans to conduct the city's first-ever artificial rain experiment on October 29, provided meteorological conditions are favorable. The initiative, developed in collaboration with IIT Kanpur, will use cloud seeding to induce rainfall as a novel scientific method to combat the capital's severe air pollution. Experts have previously noted that while innovative, the technique is expensive, has a limited area of effect, and offers only temporary respite from poor air quality.
