#TakeoverbyManishaMashaal Even if a victim of caste-based sexual violence decides to brave society which in its natural state is against her and take on her perpetrators, there is one powerful institution which will come down on her and her family no matter what - the Khap Panchayat. The government provides no protection to the victims, though it is supposed to do so and the Khap of the ruling castes tries its level best to force victims to either withdraw their complaint or ‘settle’ the matter.

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.
