A photograph taken from behind a large seated crowd in a covered open-sided pavilion. Four people in orange and saffron robes stand behind a raised stone platform decorated with a flower-garlanded shrine holding a deity murti with a crown and blue-skinned iconography, flanked by pink drapes. Two standing figures in the centre wear orange and one stands at the right in white with a yellow shawl. A large multicoloured umbrella and a trident stand at the left. Rows of seated people in white clothes and orange robes fill the foreground, many with their backs to the camera. Hanging colourful paper decorations, with pink, orange, yellow and blue, decorate the ceiling. A chart on the left wall is partly visible.
