Outdoor food-preparation scene on a blue tarpaulin beside a white wall and a concrete pole. Several men sit on the ground wearing white hair nets; some wear checked lungis and plaid shirts, one a white tank top, another a white shirt. They are sorting or cutting green and dried leaves and vegetables from heaps on the tarp. A stainless steel pot and a red-and-blue Aashirvaad-style flour sack sit in the foreground, with stacked plastic water bottles behind. The setting suggests annadan food distribution work.
