A cultural event in Paris celebrating Hindu spirituality recently sparked massive outrage. During a visit by a BAPS delegation to the Eiffel Tower, reports alleged that female employees were asked to vacate certain areas, while male staff remained.

This prompted immediate anger, leading the Eiffel Tower staff to go on strike and forcing the temporary closure of the iconic monument. French politicians strongly condemned the incident, asserting that women cannot be removed from their workplaces in the name of religion or tradition. Following the heavy backlash, BAPS released an official statement clarifying that they did not restrict access to any women and offered a sincere apology for any hurt or inconvenience caused.
