Outdoor photo of a group of about twenty young men in plain white kurta and dhoti-style clothing standing on dusty ground in front of rocky hills and scrub bushes. Two tall ceremonial banners with gold fringe and red-and-green embroidered emblems stand at the left and right edges, one held by a man at left. Several men are smiling and gesturing toward each other, some wear red-bordered white cloths and rudraksha beads, and a silver car is parked at the right edge. No a person candidate is visible; the group consists only of devotees.

An orange and gold ceremonial parasol with tassels hangs overhead, and a bald man's head is in the foreground. Concrete buildings and a dry hillside are visible behind.
