A large crowd of devotees in orange and saffron clothing sits and stands under a corrugated metal shelter, many with palms pressed together in namaste or raising hands in greeting. Several wear orange caps, some carry shoulder bags, and a few hold cameras. Pale pink and grey buildings and metal poles frame the open-sided hall. No individual can be clearly identified as a person from appearance in this crowd. Partially visible faces at the edges and rear add to the dense group.
