Women attending the Asian Development Bank’s annual meeting in New Delhi have been advised to avoid wearing short skirts since they could lead to sexual harassment, according to a website notice Thursday, May 2. The Manila-based ADB, whose board of governors is meeting this weekend in the Indian capital to discuss the global economy, advised delegates from nearly 70 countries to dress modestly in the sexually conservative nation. Don’t bare legs or wear short dresses as it “could hurt Indian sensibilities and may lead to sexual harassment”, the advisory posted by the ADB told women delegates expected to attend the meeting. The ADB later removed its dress advice from the site, with a spokeswoman saying the agency had merely wanted to send a message to “dress sensibly in a businesslike fashion.”
