Indoor hall event with a seated figure on a large white throne-style chair draped in white cloth, wearing an orange saffron robe with a yellow shawl, an orange head wrap and a beaded necklace, with a garland of white flowers, red roses and green leaves heaped across the front of the seat. A man in a white shirt and trousers stands at left and an older man in white garments stands behind. A young boy in a pink shirt has his palms pressed together in front of the seat, and a child in white-striped clothing and a young girl in a blue dress stand at right. Yellow curtains, gold-topped pillars with floral arrangements and a large portrait of a smiling man in a white turban are behind them. A microphone is in the foreground. The seated figure has distinctive long hair, an orange turban, saffron robe and beaded necklace, so the candidate is.
