These particles, dispersed through aircraft, help smaller droplets combine into larger ones, which can result in rain.-After Diwali, the Air Quality Index (AQI) in Delhi and the NCR has remained in the 'poor' and 'very poor' range across several areas, even as Stage 2 of the Graded Response Action Plan (GRAP) continues to be in force.-Manjinder Sirsa said that if weather conditions are favourable and the aircraft takes off successfully, the cloud seeding operation could take place between 12:30 pm and 1 pm.-Before the main trial, the Delhi government conducted a test in the Burari area.
