Eiffel Tower reopens after strike over limits on women staff during Hindu delegation visit

The Eiffel Tower has reopened following a strike by staff members protesting the exclusion of female employees during a visit by a Hindu delegation. The industrial action was prompted by reports that female staff were restricted from certain areas or duties during the visit, leading to a temporary closure of the landmark.

In response to the controversy, the visiting delegation issued a statement on Monday night expressing sincere apologies to those affected by the situation. The incident highlights ongoing concerns regarding workplace policies and the management of high-profile international visits at the site.
