A yellow and blue Mahindra vehicle has its rear doors open, stacked with white rice sacks and large water jugs. A man in a white shirt and white dhoti stands at left talking on a mobile phone, a woman in a cream sari with a white hairnet stands beside him, and two men handle sacks at the truck, one in a maroon shirt and green cap-like hairnet and one in a purple shirt and checked lungi.
