Cloud seeding was introduced in Dubai to tackle extreme heat waves in the city. I don't think it would serve as a source of water to consume. Especially in a dense populated city like Bangalore. 
 Certainly it can be used to cool down the city during summer but I don't think it will solve the water problem.  
  
 Even if we have extreme rainfall, where would the water go? We don't have proper bore wells, rain water harvesting nor lakes (which once existed).

Can't it be used to replenish the ground water level?

As cloud seeding is widely used by governments across the world to induce artificial rain, I wonder why Karnataka Government has not yet explored this path.

As cloud seeding is widely used by governments across the world to induce artificial rain, I wonder why Karnataka Government has not yet explored this path. They seem to have all the scientific support in the form of DRDO,ISRO,AIR FORCE locally available. 

Can someone throw some light on this?

Any cloud seeding experts?

Why is Karnataka government not exploring cloud seeding option for the rain? They have almost all the technical support locally ie isro, air force?

Cloud seeding experts?

Just a thought that came to my mind.

Looking at the current water crisis in Karnataka will the government be looking to raise water in exchange of some equity .😂😂😂😂

Have you had similar water situation in the past? Always thought Bangalore as a lake city, but looks like most of them aren’t taken care of.

Bangalore, my 'Karm Bhoomi' and the heart of the global software industry, is facing an acute #water crisis. With taps running dry and a pricing war waging over water tankers, the situation is reminiscent of Arrakis, where only the rich had access to water. Our maid now arrives earlier to ensure dishes are washed before the water ceases at noon and later comes to do other chores. Getting to work is another battle—an exercise in managing daily routines with packaged water, only to be stuck in the city's traffic with blaring heat.

Unlike Arrakis, though, Bangalore is supposed to have numerous lakes and a functioning water cycle as part of the city's ecosystem. So how did we get here?

Inadequate rainfall and overexploitation of groundwater resources (47% of borewells under Govt. Board (BMRDA & BWSSB) in the city have ceased to yield water), coupled with inefficient….

No alerts, no plan of action, no major statements in the media. Am I missing something or is this just plain, terrible governance.

Crazy how Karnataka Government hasn't addressed the bomb threat

- rainfall has reduced
- > 70% lakes have dried up/covered up by builders
- its not even feb and there is shortage of water everywhere. There are people literally carrying jugs of water on their head like villages if you head out after evenings.
- brigade/sobha/prestige societies with flats > 1.5 cr have put out notices with water supply being cut for more than 6 hours everyday, wtf is Bangalore real estate really 
- water supply here was really bad initially ( hard water, polluted water) but the water shortage in feb only is really worrisome.

I want to understand homeowners/aspiring homeowners - how are you planning for this? Are You even worried about this?
Or even people thinking of settling long term in Bangalore, thoughts about this?
