A photograph of several men in saffron-orange dhotis and shawls walking together through a dimly lit stone temple corridor, holding hands in a line. The man second from left has long swept-back dark hair, a white tilak on his forehead, a gold pendant on a chain and gold necklaces, and a red-orange wrap draped over his shoulder. Beside him stands an older bald man with a rudraksha mala and gold pendant, a bald man in orange at the far right wears a rudraksha mala, and uniformed police officers stand at the right edge. Behind them, women in dark saris and men in white and orange clothing follow along a pillared corridor. The presence of a long-haired man in ornate saffron with gold necklaces is a probable Swamiji (probable) appearance-based candidate walking in procession.
