The Delhi government plans to conduct its first cloud seeding trial depending on weather conditions. The trial involves dispersing substances like silver iodide to stimulate rainfall, aiming to reduce severe air pollution. The initiative is part of a broader strategy to address pollution during winter. A review meeting is scheduled to assess feasibility, and the flight carrying necessary equipment is expected from Kanpur. Delhi's air quality has been very poor, necessitating such measures.
