Reliance Industries Chairman mukesh ambani and his wife Nita Ambani's participation at Donald Trump's inaugural events garnered media attention, with some calling it a "special honor." Nevertheless, it was recently discovered that the event was paid for.
The inaugural festivities reportedly served as a fundraising occasion and a chance to see the newly elected president and vice president up close.
According to the fundraising materials, to have exclusive access to the President, a maximum donation of $1 million, or Rs. 8.65 crore, is needed.
Additionally, additional packages were offered to interested guests at the event. The most expensive package includes six seats to the 'candlelight dinner', which trump is anticipated to attend, as well as two tickets to an intimate meal with Vice President Vance. On the other hand, there are less expensive packages that drastically reduce access and special chances.
Many lobbyists, businesspeople, and donors saw this occasion as a crucial chance to get up close and personal with the recently elected US president. Many people with big business ideas view the tickets as a strategic investment to boost their influence and a platform to promote their proposal.
This leads to speculation about the Ambani family's notable attendance at Trump's inaugural events, with many questioning whether the invitation, which was otherwise presented as official, was actually purchased by the family.
