Devotees queue on a raised stage to offer respects at a golden throne decorated with a gold arch and a canopy, framed by a flower-garlanded arch of marigolds and roses. A seated figure in saffron-orange robes with a long garland of beads sits on the throne; the person's face is not used for identification and the appearance is not clearly established, so the identity is uncertain.
