Many men and some children sit cross-legged on mats in rows facing a raised platform near a white building with a red-and-white facade and an entrance sign. Most men wear white dhotis and white shirts; some wear plain shirts and trousers. A woman in orange sari sits at right near a small stone pedestal. A silver minivan is parked behind the crowd and a wall map board stands at upper right. A deity murti or statue with orange garland is visible at the left edge of the entrance. The scene appears to be a seated assembly or sarva-darshan style gathering.
