In a surprising turn of events, Pakistan State Oil (PSO) has invoiced the caretaker Punjab government for expenses related to Lahore’s artificial rain initiative, despite earlier claims of no associated costs.
The groundbreaking endeavor, aimed at tackling the severe air pollution crisis in December 2023, utilized cloud seeding techniques with a specially acquired aircraft from Dubai.
However, the revelation of the bill has ignited criticism, raising concerns about transparency and resource allocation.
Despite this controversy, the successful induction of artificial rain marks a significant milestone in environmental management, offering hope in the ongoing battle against air pollution in Lahore and beyond.
