Not involved, says government amid controversy over religious group’s Eiffel Tower tour

The Indian government denied any involvement in the controversy surrounding the BAPS group's alleged request to restrict women employees at the Eiffel Tower, which was shut for a day following Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s temple inauguration in Paris. French officials have opened an inquiry while BAPS maintains the operational changes were logistical, not gender‑based.
