A figure in saffron with long dark hair stands beside them. Around them a crowd of men in white dhotis and white shirts, plus some in casual shirts and trousers, stands watching. A man in a white shirt and white dhoti on the right wears a beaded necklace. The scene reads as a welcoming reception on a campus road.
