A photograph inside a large hall with a red-painted steel roof frame and white walls, showing a long line of men standing side by side on a polished white floor. Most wear white dhotis or white shirts, and some wear cream or striped shirts and trousers. One man in a cream shirt has a round red badge on his chest. Several men carry bags, and a man at the right holds a small object. Daylight comes through windows along the back wall. No deity, throne or a person candidate is visible, so the figures are devotees waiting in line.
