A man in a white shirt and white dhoti stands beside him holding a steel cup, and an older bearded man in a white shirt holds out a steel plate to receive food. A man in a striped polo shirt stands at the left edge with his back partly turned. Piles of cloth and plastic sheeting are visible behind them, and a wooden table holds the pot.
