SocietyEiffel Tower shut after staff protest over women moved for religious visit

The Eiffel Tower closed on Monday after staff protested that female workers had been moved from their posts during a visit by about 100 people linked to the Hindu BAPS group. The operator said the arrangement conflicted with its values and gender-equality principles, while Paris’s mayor ordered an investigation. BAPS apologised for any harm or inconvenience.
