A street procession crowded with men in white dhotis and shirts moves along a town road lined with shops and a parked white van. In the foreground, a bare-chested drummer in a yellow-and-white dhoti plays a drum wrapped in red cloth, and another drummer in a green cloth over his shoulder beats a drum with red cloth. A man in white with an orange-and-red garland raises an arm. Police officers in khaki uniforms and red-banded caps stand among the crowd on the right. Many onlookers fill the roadway behind the drummers, with a banner and signboards visible above the shopfronts.
