Delhi's Artificial Rain Flop: Cloud Seeding Fails to Bring Rain to Delhi

This special report covers the political firestorm ignited by Delhi's attempt to use artificial rain to combat severe air pollution. A cloud seeding trial by the BJP-led Delhi government and IIT Kanpur failed to produce significant rainfall, triggering a sharp conflict between the ruling party and the opposition Aam Aadmi Party. The Aam Aadmi Party stated, 'They are absolutely fake people, everything is fake.' The operation's failure was attributed to low moisture content in the clouds, a critical factor for the success of such weather modification techniques. The incident has intensified the debate over scientific solutions versus political accountability in the capital's ongoing battle with its hazardous air quality, with both parties accusing each other of failure and misinformation.
