BAPS Clarifies Controversy Over Female Employees

The Eiffel Tower was temporarily closed after staff went on strike following allegations that female employees were asked to remain out of sight during a visit by a BAPS Hindu delegation. The claims triggered concerns over alleged discrimination against female staff and led to a protest by employees at the iconic Paris landmark.

BAPS, however, rejected the characterization of the incident, saying that portraying it in such a manner was inaccurate. The organization reiterated its commitment to respect, harmony and the dignity of every individual. The controversy has sparked widespread discussion over the incident and the allegations surrounding it.
