A photograph of a large hall with a crowd of people in white clothing with red-orange sashes, moving together in a dense group. Most people wear white kurta-style garments and red-orange sashes; some in the centre wear orange or saffron garments. Many are barefoot on a polished floor. Behind them, a large framed painting hangs on the wall, and a tiered decorated shrine with golden ornaments and a deity murti stands at the far end beside gold-coloured pillars and floral decorations. Several figures in dark clothing stand among the white-clad crowd.
