Delhi's much-awaited artificial rain experiment
Delhi Environment Minister Manjinder Singh Sirsa told PTI that there were no suitable clouds for the trial, according to the India Meteorological Department (IMD), and no window is expected until October 25.
“The day we get suitable clouds, we will conduct the trial immediately, as all preparations from permissions to flight arrangements are already in place,” he said.
Last week, it was indicated that the trial could take place any day after Diwali.
