PETALING JAYA: There are no plans for cloud seeding operations as the government continues to monitor the haze situation in the country, says Nik Nazmi Nik Ahmad.

The Natural Resources, Environment and Climate Change Minister said cloud seeding operations will only be carried out in areas where the Air Pollutant Index (API) readings are above 150 for more than 24 hours.
