Signs read STOP THE ATROCITIES, STOP RELIGIOUS PERSECUTION, and STOP FALSE ALLEGATIONS ON NITHYANANDA DHYANAPEETAM. Several men wear saffron or yellow shawls, and some wear rudraksha malas. Behind them are an orange wall, a laptop, a blue plastic chair and a glass display cabinet. Several people in the foreground wear saffron shawls and rudraksha malas and look toward the signs. A man in a red shirt with a tilak and a mala sits at left. No figure in the scene is clearly identifiable as a prominent leader.
