A large indoor hall with a wooden trussed roof and rows of overhead lights shows a dense audience seated on white plastic chairs facing away from the camera toward a stage. Most attendees wear white kurta-pyjama or shirt-and-trouser clothing, with some in saffron or orange garments, and a few in blue shirts. A green carpet runs down the centre aisle with a red strip beside it. Several large screens and banners line the far end of the hall. No single figure can be clearly identified as a person from this view, so the scene is a convention audience session.
