A photograph of a long-haired man in saffron-orange robes standing with palms pressed together in namaste, wearing a multicolour garland of yellow, red and white flowers and a gold pendant. He has white tilak marks on his forehead and is surrounded by a crowd of men in white dhotis and yellow shawls, one photographer with a camera, and a uniformed police officer. To the right, a bearded man in orange robes with rudraksha beads and gold chains walks alongside. Flowering shrubs, palm trees and an old stone temple wall form the background. The man in the centre matches the a person appearance cues (long hair, saffron robe, ornate gold necklace and garland) but the identification is uncertain, so the candidate is described as a person.

A central man with long dark hair and a teal-green head cloth wears an orange-saffron dhoti and shawl with multiple rudraksha malas and a gold-toned necklace, and he is walking forward with his arm raised. Around him are saffron-robed sannyasis, some with shaved heads and rudraksha malas, holding papers, and men in white shirts and white dhotis, some carrying a yellow bag. Uniformed police officers stand in the background.
