'UN is a hoax!': Twitter fumes after rape-accused Nithyanada’s Kailasa attends UN meet

Representatives of fugitive "godman" Nithyananda's self-proclaimed country, the United States of Kailasa (USK), attended a discussion conducted by the United Nations Committee on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights (CESCR) in Geneva on February 24.
 
Twitter fumes after rape-accused Nithyanada’s Kailasa attends UN meet
While tweeting a picture of one of the representatives — a woman dressed in a sari and wearing a turban and jewellery — Nithyananda said, "USK at UN Geneva: Inputs on the Achievement of Sustainability….. Participation of the United States of KAILASA in a discussion on the General Comment on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights and Sustainable Development at the United Nations in Geneva".
 
Notably, the USK isn’t among the 193 countries recognised by the UN. In 2020, Nithyananda claimed to have founded a new country after he “bought an island” off the coast of Ecuador. The ‘country’ has a flag, a constitution, an economic system, a passport and an emblem.
 
Videos emerged online showing Vijayapriya Nithyananda, who claims to be Kailasa's 'Permanent Ambassador to the UN' speaking at the 19th UN CESR meeting in Geneva. This has sparked outrage as netizens on Twitter slammed the UN for providing a platform to the rape-accused 'Godman.'
 
 
 
 
 
Notably, Nithyananda fled India after he was accused of rape and of confining children in his ashram illegally in 2019.
