Indoor hall with a red and green mat floor where a crowd sits in rows. In the foreground, a bare-shouldered figure in a red sleeveless top and orange shawl, with long dark hair tied back, leans forward to hold the shoulder of a kneeling man in a khaki uniform shirt with a sergeant-style shoulder patch. Another khaki-uniformed man kneels beside him, smiling. Standing behind them, a man in a white shirt wears a dark beaded mala and a police officer in khaki uniform stands at the back. Several white-clad volunteers and seated devotees in blue and green saris fill the background. The robed figure with long swept-back hair and orange-red clothing and mala is a probable Swamiji (probable), shown in an interactive blessing with the kneeling officer.
