A large hall with a red floor where a very large crowd of men sits cross-legged in rows, almost all wearing white cloth blindfolds tied over their eyes. Many wear white shirts and dhotis or trousers, while others wear checked shirts, striped shirts and coloured tops. Several have identity badges clipped to their shirts, and water bottles sit on the floor in front. Some people hold their hands in their laps or rest them on their knees. Bright banners and white pillars line the background of the hall.
