The government of Delhi, the capital of India, partnered with the Indian Institute of Technology, Kanpur, to conduct cloud-seeding trials to reduce environmental pollutants and create artificial rain to wash away pollutants. The experiment aimed to scatter chemicals into clouds to create rainfall, but after three unsuccessful attempts, including two
Cloud seeding
The recent cloud seeding operation in Delhi on October 29 was a purely experimental exercise, aimed at gathering data and improving scientific knowledge, according to M Ravichandran, secretary of the Ministry of Earth Sciences (MoES). The experiment was conducted in collaboration with the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Kanpur and

As the recent experiments on inducing artificial rain by cloud seeding in Delhi garnered attention, top Indian research institutions participated in the process, inviting deep scrutiny from a scientific perspective. Cloud seeding involves introducing substances like silver iodide or sodium chloride into particular clouds to artificially trigger rain, but this

In 1952, during the peak of India's monsoon season, a Kolkata scientist made history by successfully conducting cloud seeding experiments over the city, inducing rain with nearly 100% success. Dr. Sudhanshu Kumar Banerji, affectionately known as "Megh Banerji," achieved this remarkable feat using hydrogen balloons and

A study conducted by the Centre for Atmospheric Sciences at the Indian Institute of Technology Delhi (IIT Delhi) has concluded that cloud seeding cannot be a primary or reliable strategy for managing winter air pollution in Delhi. The researchers found that the capital's climatic conditions are unsuitable for
