A large seated gathering of women in cream and white saris and white kurta-style garments sits on the floor of a hall, many wearing rudraksha malas and wearing delegate name badges on their clothing. Some have vermilion or kumkum on their foreheads and a few wear orange or red garments. Bags and a green backpack rest in front of the front row, and a long brass rod stands at the right edge. A woman in the foreground with a red bindi and gold earrings smiles while others around her sit attentively. In the background, a raised stage area with a table and a few people in orange and white is visible, with an altar-like setup and framed items on the wall.
