On 11 September 2024, the Union Cabinet approved the ₹2,000 crore Mission Mausam over two years, which focuses on significantly upgrading the equipment used by key organisations like the India Meteorological Department, the National Centre for Medium Range Weather Forecasting, and the Indian Institute of Tropical Meteorology. These organisations form the backbone of India’s weather and climate forecasting capabilities across various time scales.
This is slightly different from the National Monsoon Mission, launched in 2012 developed state-of-the-art weather and climate prediction models through intensive computing.

Mission Mausam represents a significant investment in India’s weather forecasting capabilities, and also underscores the complexities and uncertainties inherent in weather modification. The initiative’s ambitious goals, such as cloud simulation and lightning control, highlight the potential for groundbreaking advancements. However, the success of these efforts will depend on continued research and technological innovation.
