A photograph inside a white canopy tent decorated with yellow and orange marigold garlands. A red carpet with ornate medallion borders runs down the centre toward a raised stage at left, where steps are draped with marigold garlands and there are yellow-framed placards and a framed painting of a deity on the back wall. A cameraman in a yellow shirt stands on the carpet behind a tripod while uniformed officers stand near the stage. Seated audience members in rows of chairs fill the right side, along a blue-skirted table line on green matting. Brass vessels and removed footwear sit at the stage base.
