This multi-part video series, created in collaboration with the Calicut-based production house, Pulley Junction, tells stories of lives fundamentally altered by the Kerala floods, and the ongoing effort at rebuilding those lives. In the first episode, we visit Eranjimangad camp in Nilambur, where an arterial road linking the region to the rest of the state has been turned into a swathe of rubble. The camp holds refugees from over six colonies, most of whom belong to marginalised communities. The first deaths in the floods were reported from this region, which was rendered inaccessible by landslides and rising waters.

No rain in Delhi after cloud seeding trials. Why did the experiment flop?
Delhi conducted cloud seeding experiments to induce artificial rain and reduce pollution but saw no rain due to low moisture in clouds. Despite no rain, the cloud seeding trials led to a slight improvement in air quality, with PM2.5 and PM10 levels dropping in targeted areas. More cloud seeding experiments are planned, depending on atmospheric conditions, to further address Delhi's pollution issues.
