Delhi’s ₹34 Crore Cloud Seeding Fails to Bring Rain
IN · Published Nov 2, 2025
Delhi's cloud seeding project, costing ₹34 crore, failed due to insufficient cloud moisture.
Experts warn cloud seeding is a temporary fix, not a long-term solution for Delhi's pollution.
Successful cloud seeding requires abundant cloud moisture, which Delhi's winter skies lack.
Cloud seeding yields minimal results in Delhi
This week, Delhi attempted to coax rain from the skies through cloud seeding, but the effort yielded minimal results. Three rounds of cloud seeding, each costing approximately ₹60–65 lakh, resulted in only a light drizzle.
