A festival procession moves along a paved road past a hillside with tents and flags. At the front, a decorated float carries a deity murti and a figure in saffron robes with a red shawl, beneath a garland-draped canopy. A blue New Holland tractor pulls a dark-roofed trailer with yellow-and-red floral decorations. Men in white dhotis with red shawls and rudraksha malas walk alongside, one holding a rope; a smiling woman in a cream sari with a red-and-gold border and a lanyard walks in front. A decorated umbrella and a red flag with a saffron emblem are visible. Devotees in white line the roadside and a bare-chested man wears garlands and a sacred thread.
