Outdoor event under an orange canopy. A man on the right wears a large orange turban, an orange robe and a dark rudraksha-style beaded shawl, smiling and gesturing with an outstretched hand toward a bearded man on the left. The bearded man has white-and-orange forehead markings, an orange robe and holds a black microphone. Behind them, men in orange and saffron clothing, gold necklaces and a yellow head wrap stand in a crowd; a silver staff with a decorative top is held by a man in an orange shirt with a gold chain. The orange-clad turbaned man is a person candidate based on the large orange turban, orange robe and rudraksha-style shawl, though his identity cannot be confirmed.
