A press conference in a hall with a blue-grey curtain backdrop. A figure in orange robes and an orange turban sits on an ornate gold throne on a raised stage, with a vase of flowers beside him. In front, a row of about ten reporters and camera operators stand with their backs to the viewer, several filming with video cameras on tripods and one raising a phone. Around them are monitors, a standing fan, and a seated technician at the lower right. The seated figure in orange matches the page's in-person Swamiji cue, with orange clothing, a turban and a garland, so the identification is probable.
