Outdoor construction or campus-cleaning work on a dusty, unpaved site with scattered stone blocks, rubble and piled sand. Several people in orange and saffron clothing and white outfits push wheelbarrows and handcarts, and one person bends to work with a tool. A worker in a red top and others in orange stand in a loose group among the stones, with a wooden frame and bamboo poles around the area. Green trees and a few utility poles appear in the background under a pale sky.
