Here's the Logic Behind the Exemption: ✍️All four selected firms have established physical manufacturing units and local infrastructure inside India. 🇮🇳🇨🇳 Following the deadly 2020 Galwan Valley border clash, India put up restrictions on Chinese entities, blocking them from government contracts estimated to be worth over $700 billion. However, this total blockade backfired on our infrastructure sector. 👷‍♂️Due to lack of heavy equipment such as ultra high voltage transformers and specialized grid components, this led to massive project delays and parts shortages, threatening India’s green transition and thermal power capacity targets.

Realizing they were facing a conventional military defeat, the Pakistani state immediately unleashed a massive ₹45 crore ($5.4 million) emergency lobbying front in Washington, D.C. Within days, Pakistan activated six U.S. public relations and lobbying firms including high-priced entities like Orchid Advisors, Seiden Law, Javelin Advisors and Qorvis to flood the halls of American power with pleas for immediate diplomatic intervention.

✍️🇵🇰 Glimpses Of Our Upcoming Report: Pakistan consistently retained the Washington firms which included Locke Lord Strategies, Team Eagle and Janus-Merritt Strategies with monthly retainers frequently averaging between $50,000 and $75,000. These corporates were tasked with a single clear agenda - convince a deeply skeptical U.S. Congress that Pakistan was an partner deserving of "Major Non-NATO Ally" status. These firms worked around the clock to arrange media appearances for Pakistani generals and push back against growing intelligence reports that exposed how the Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) was actively sheltering the Haqqani Network and other groups killing coalition soldiers. ✍️SBR Has Spent The Past 2 Months In Preparing an Investigative Report on Pakistan's Lobbying Industry - The Report will be public on July 5th
