Outdoors under a palm-fringed canopy, a bearded man in a white dhoti and shawl with a white flower garland and red flowers stands in front of a white car while another man holds a brass kalasha vessel topped with yellow marigolds. A young priest in white with a red cloth over his shoulder and gold chains holds a tray, and a man in an orange robe stands with hands folded in namaskar. Onlookers and a yellow van are in the background, with a large banner of a map and a poster of a saffron-robed figure. Looks like a welcome ritual with a kalasha.
