She spoke with representatives from numerous nations on February 24 at a UN body conference and posted those encounters on her social media accounts. In other pictures, Vijayapriya can be seen signing documents with what she believes are American officials. Their website, “Kailasa,” also states that they have NGOs and embassies in 150 different nations.

How did the UN respond to her statements?

According to a UN official who spoke to the BBC, the organisation will disregard the claims made by the ambassadors of the hypothetical nation. Additionally, the official referred to their remarks as “tangential” and “irrelevant” to the topics under discussion.

The rest of the world and India were in disbelief when “Kailasa” representatives attended the UN summit. The Indian government has not yet made an official statement regarding the situation.

Where is the location of Kailasa?

With numerous cases against him, including rape and sexual abuse, Nithyananda departed India years ago. He has refuted every charge. According to the BBC, he established “Kailasa” in 2019 on an island off the coast of Ecuador after fleeing India. The nation is named after a Himalayan peak that is thought to be Lord Shiva’s fabled home.

Nithyananda’s presence in Ecuador had been disputed at the time. Because the self-styled godman has not appeared publicly since 2019, his sermons are posted on social media.
