Many women wear white and cream saris with gold borders and gold necklaces, some with bindis and vibhuti, and one woman in the foreground presses her palms together in prayer. Men and boys in white dhotis and shirts sit among them, and a boy at the lower left wears glasses. Speakers and fans hang from the tent poles, and two saffron pennants are visible at the upper right. No individual is clearly identifiable as a person in this crowd view.
