A courtyard gathering at an orange-painted school building with a corrugated roof. A bald man in a saffron-orange robe and orange shawl, wearing rudraksha beads, stands at centre distributing items to children. Several children in white kurtas and blue shirts crowd around him, while a girl in white with an orange shawl stands at left. Seated adults in white and yellow vests and an older woman in a brown jacket appear in the background, and plastic chairs line the right side. The person in orange has distinctive saffron robes and rudraksha cues, but the appearance is not sufficiently certain to identify him.
