The head of the company that operates the Eiffel Tower in Paris is set to step down at the end of the year. The departure follows a controversy in which female staff members at the landmark were excluded during a visit by a Hindu religious group.
The incident generated widespread public outrage in France and triggered a staff walkout, which forced the closure of the Eiffel Tower for a single day.
