Outdoor relief kitchen on a dusty dirt lane under a misty grey sky, with palm trees behind a white building. Two striped tarpaulin canopies shelter large steel cooking pots, vats and metal tubs; a yellow van stands in the back. Several people in white clothes and head coverings work at the pots and tables, and two sadhus in orange-saffron robes with shaved heads stand in the centre of the lane. Gas cylinders, buckets and scattered planks sit on the ground, consistent with an annadan food-distribution effort.
