INDUCED RAIN LEAVES A CLOUD OF QUESTIONS

N a region where agriculture, commerce, and culture have been shaped by monsoon rains for millennia, artificially induced precipitation is bound to be seen as a spectacle just short of a miracle.

So all eyes were on the national capital's first cloud-seeding experiment this Tuesday. With help from IIT Kanpur, the Delhi government used a light aircraft to seed clouds with chemical agents that stimulate moisture formation. A sum of ₹3.2 crore was allotted for five trials aimed at measuring whether the technology could effectively disperse airborne particles. When the underwhelming rainfall hardly made a dent in the hazardous brown dome hovering over Delhi, the sub-optimal moisture level was blamed. No further trial has since been announced after the first one comprising three sorties.
