France’s strict constitutional principle of secularism, known as laïcité, continues to spark debate over the boundary between state neutrality and personal religious freedom. The French government maintains that restricting visible religious symbols and clothing in public institutions, particularly state schools, is essential to uphold equality and social cohesion. However, civil liberties advocates and members of religious communities argue that these policies disproportionately scrutinize the country’s Muslim population, raising concerns regarding freedom of expression, discrimination, and civic integration in modern French society.
- The concept of laïcité, rooted in a 1905 law, establishes the strict separation of state affairs and religious practices in France.
- French legislation implemented in 2004 bans students from wearing conspicuous religious symbols—such as Islamic headscarves, Jewish kippahs, and large Christian crosses—in public schools.
- Recent government enforcement measures have extended to traditional garments like the abaya and qamis, with authorities defining them as breaches of secular guidelines in educational spaces.
- Proponents argue that maintaining a strictly secular environment prevents religious pressure among students and safeguards a shared national identity.
- Critics contend that the widening scope of these restrictions infringes upon civil rights and further marginalizes religious minority communities.

Question is, in its history, has Eiffel tower management ever accepted such demands related to any type of segregation by any religious or private groups?
If yes then how many times has it happened before.
If this incident is not unique then their system needs an overhaul.
What weird demands were allowed by the management in the past for this demand to be considered reasonable?
What policies are followed by Eiffel tower management? How much money was received for this booking and special request?
They are the one want to visit the Eiffel tower
Those visitors has to follow the rules of the Eiffel tower & France country
Those visitors has to be sued & paid restitution also apologize internationally
In November 2019, A Swaminarayan temple in Kheda Gujarat India got raided and counterfeit currency of ₹ 1.26 crores were found. The counterfeit currency was being circulated through "Sweet Boxes". France should be cautious, better run an investigation whether these self proclaimed "Godmen" are printing counterfeit Euros.
I remember when France slammed Italy for covering nude statues when the Iranian president visited Rome, more than 10 years ago.
So, covering pieces of marble is a no-no, but ejecting female workers is A-ok. 😂😂🤡
Zero tolerance for the intolerant
For the safety of female staff at the Eiffel Tower, the Indian delegation requested that no female employees be present during their Hindu religious group visit.
It is a shame that these guys get to use the Indian flag.
this group is not Indian or Hindu group.. this is an anti Indian group of terrorists… no where in India, we say that ladies are not allowed somewhere in India.. i am honestly angry on this stupidity. They should have rather been punished and jailed by french authorities for thinking about this thing
This group is an embarrassment to every Indian. The leader of this group was recently invited to USA to give a speech on equality. What a joke!!!
The hindu group is very back word and follow 7th century hindu tradition.
So, these misogynists have opened a temple to their misogyny. Very liberal!
Why you allowed a cult to build a temple in Paris?
That temple should not have been allowed to open in Paris.

WELL WELL WELL 😂
3:56 Oh, like the Mormons 🤨
Pleasing God is more important than political correctness. The Hindus did nothing wrong, in a normal society this would not be a scandal.
I wished we'd stop appeasing religious habits, their special Gods give them everything they need… apparently 🤔
Ridiculous
As if spreading nonsense in india is not enough, they have to take this to France.
But you let it happen!
Is it that big news, showing from 3 days, they don't talk about their problems.
haha rousseau and voltaire would have fun if they lived in this era
Hope the manager who accommodated this was seriously warned. France is a laic Republic by law. If visitors are not happy with it they are welcome to travel somewhere else
This is what you get for letting the RSS do program in Madison Square Garden.
99% of Millionaire/ Billionaire person it will not affect because it's business for them.
but for the common people, this is a very huge thing, especially in the Woman Empowerment Sector.
Don't let anyone take control of your country before giving permission to anyone check their background.
Hindu gurus are born of women, yet their disrespect towards women is unacceptable. I do not consider such individuals to be genuine religious leaders or true patriots, especially since our culture venerates our country as Bharat Mata. The unjustifiable conduct of these foolish gurus deserves strong condemnation. Additionally, I hold the management accountable for unquestioningly following their demands.
Business absolutely is allowed to cater to the wishes of its customers. Be they swingers, nudist, gay or religious people. Employees thoughts on the matter do not come into it.
Now, Eiffel Tower not exactly being a regular business, this should not be going on.
This religious group which discriminates between men and women should be banned in France
As an Indian , They are Doomed Sanatani Relegion servant
This is less than 1% of what happens when you allow religion to govern you: discrimination in the name of culture and customs.
I wonder what these religions have against women; they are always the first to be excluded.
Should have stay in India😂😂😂
This is not just a BAPS issue; in some places in India, women are treated according to the Manusmriti.
Whole thing could've been avoided if a manager with a spine just said "No, we cannot do that".
While it is anyone's prerogative to live the way they want inside their own boundaries, they cannot impose that view on uninterested (in aforesaid view) others outside those boundaries. This should be a common rule of engagement for everybody in any civil society. Unfortunately, the politicians here will exploit the situation for their own ends.
Of course they should not have accepted!!! It is France, not India!!!
