A photograph of a small gold-toned statue standing on a gilded base, wearing a maroon turban with a jewelled ornament and an elaborate jewelled and gemstone-studded necklace in red, green and white stones with pearl drops. The figure is draped in white and lavender flower garlands, with a green leaf placed beside it and a heap of red flowers at its base. It stands on an ornate gold and red embroidered cloth over a yellow silk backdrop, with a decorated tray at the right edge. The statue is a murti or image, not a living person, and no candidate in-person presence is shown.
