Two deity murtis are seated together on a raised pink-draped seat, one holding a trident and the other a sceptre, both adorned with gold jewellery and large multicoloured garlands. Banana leaves, green festoons and red curtains frame the shrine. A white-and-garland-covered pedestal sits in front, with small offerings and lamps on a low platform. Several people are visible only as partial figures at the far right edge of the railing, seated near the aisle.2013-01-02A photograph of a temple shrine decorated with long garlands of yellow marigolds, orange and pink flowers, and white jasmine strings.
