Cloud seeding after 53 yrs: Delhi govt, IIT-Kanpur turn to ‘artificial rain’ to clear air; third such trial since 1957

A Cessna aircraft released flares over the city, aiming to induce rainfall as a temporary solution. This marks the third such experiment in Delhi since 1957, with past trials showing potential effectiveness.
