Pakistan’s Lahore was declared the most polluted city in the world on Monday with an alarming AQI of 394. Punjab province on Tuesday said it has planned artificial rains to mitigate the impact of smog after Lahore faced an alarming Air Quality Index (AQI) of 394.
It would be the second time that Lahore, the cultural capital of Pakistan, would carry out cloud seeding for artificial rain. The first time it was done was in December 2023 that cloud seeding was done for combating hazardous levels of smog and the project had cost an estimated Rs 350 million. The Punjab government of Maryam Nawaz has also launched the ‘Anti-Smog Squad’ which will visit smog-affected areas.
