The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) said on Saturday that its Chairman, R.K. Pachauri, had expressed his inability to go to Nairobi next week for chairing its plenary session, apparently in the wake of a complaint of sexual harassment against him.
“The Chairman of IPCC, Rajendra K. Pachauri, has informed the IPCC that he will be unable to chair the plenary session of the IPCC in Nairobi next week because of issues demanding his attention in India,” the IPCC said in a statement here.
This comes after the Delhi Police registered a case of molestation and sexual harassment against him on a complaint from a research associate working in his office.
