Hindustan Times Pune
|April 13, 2025
Dust from the Thar could be making rain more alkaline in Pune, Jodhpur, and Srinagar and air pollution could be making rainfall more acidic in cities such as Vishakhapatnam, Allahabad, Mohanbari (Assam), as per an analysis.
NEW DELHI:
The study by the India Meteorological Department (IMD) and the Indian Institute of Tropical Meteorology (IITM), Pune, analysed the pH value, which measures acidity or basicity, of rainfall of ten cities in India.
The data recorded at GAW (global atmosphere watch) stations from 1987 to 2021 were analysed.
The findings are published by the IMD as a "met monograph", a comprehensive analysis of a meteorological topic.
The study suggests that atmospheric conditions and local emissions can affect the chemistry or pH of rainfall.

Patel at 150: A life in service of the nation
When India gained independence on August 15, 1947, the British left behind a fractured subcontinent that included more than 560 princely states. Without geographical unity, its hard-won freedom would have been hollow. With vision, determination, and an unyielding will, Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel, India’s first deputy prime minister and home minister, forged these scattered principalities into a single nation, giving independent India its shape and strength. However, the efforts of this great unifier did not receive the recognition he deserved.
