A photograph of a covered, open-sided hall with a corrugated metal roof and ceiling fans, where many people sit on a concrete floor in rows facing toward the left and the front of the room. Most seated attendees wear white or cream clothes, with some in orange, pink and maroon saris and salwar. A woman in an orange sari and a woman in a white and gold-bordered sari stand near the left, and a woman in a yellow-bordered outfit gestures toward the group. Tall painted cylindrical pillars wrapped in patterned fabric and green banana plants decorate the hall, and a rope-and-railing barrier separates the seated crowd from the front area. Framed photographs hang on the back wall, and a seated figure in orange robes appears at the far right.
