A street procession moves through a crowded fairground lined with tents, flags and onlookers. Red flags on tall poles are carried at the front, with red and orange umbrellas overhead. A person in a red turban and garland at the lower left smiles and gestures toward the camera, while women in white saris with red borders walk in the procession. A man in a red turban and ochre garments at centre stands on a platform carried by others, with a figure in a decorative seat and a garland. Police in khaki uniforms line the route beside yellow barricades. Many spectators stand behind the marchers.
