Why does the IMD state that it cannot conclusively confirm whether the event was a cloudburst?
A
Because there are no weather radars at such high altitudes, making real-time intensity measurement impossible
B
Because cloudbursts require geological surveys, not meteorological data
C
Because rainfall events above 20 cm are automatically classified as landslides rather than cloudbursts
D
Because only satellite data can detect cloudbursts, and satellites were not operational at that time
