Due to severe smog in various cities of Punjab, the government is taking various measures, in which artificial rain is also being considered.


Regarding artificial rain, experts say that for artificial rain there must be clouds and for this the clouds are identified.


According to experts, after identifying the clouds, chemicals are sprayed on the clouds from a height of 2 to 4 thousand feet from a special aircraft, which makes the clouds heavy and rains.



The meteorological department in Pakistan has already successfully experimented with artificial rain, while this practice is often practiced in the Gulf countries.
