A seated man in orange robes and a red-and-orange shawl sits cross-legged on an ornate gilded throne with red velvet cushions and a red velvet backrest. He wears long rudraksha malas, has a red bindi on his forehead, and holds a clear acrylic lectern or book stand with a white sheet of paper, reading with his head bowed. A microphone stands at right. The gilded throne is richly carved with floral and lion motifs. Appearance-based cues of a long swept-back hairstyle, rudraksha malas and saffron clothing are present, but the identity is uncertain, so the figure is described by role as a seated speaker.
