Fugitive ‘godman’ Nithyananda has received a snub from the United Nations. The development comes days after  
two representatives of Nithyananda's self-proclaimed country, the United States of Kailasa, attended a discussion conducted by the United Nations Committee on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights in Geneva.

The UN human rights office said that the submissions made by the representatives were “irrelevant” and will not be considered in the outcome drafts.

According to PTI, the Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights said the two representatives “were prevented from distributing promotional material and their ‘tangential’ speech was not taken into consideration”.
