An Intelligence Bureau report on foreign-funded NGOs "negatively impacting economic development" in India has called Greenpeace "a threat to national economic security", citing activities ranging from protests against nuclear and coal plants and funding of "sympathetic" research, to allegedly helping out an Aam Aadmi Party candidate in the recent Lok Sabha elections.

The allegations are part of the IB's report, dated June 3, submitted to the Prime Minister's Office. As reported first by The Indian Express, the IB claims the negative impact of the NGOs' role on GDP growth to be "2-3 per cent per annum".
