A decorated golden ceremonial palanquin-style chariot in an outdoor street procession, draped with marigold and white jasmine garlands and hung with brass bells and tassels in red, green and orange. A gold umbrella with fringe and an orange umbrella shade the seated central figure, who wears a saffron-orange turban, orange garland and ornate gold necklaces. A uniformed police officer in khaki stands at the left edge gripping the chariot rail. Two bare-chested attendants in white dhotis with gold borders stand at the right, one holding a gold-topped staff. A red flag and a billboard with Hindi text are visible in the background, along with leafy trees.
