The murtis wear layered gold and silver jewellery, crowns and garlands of orange and yellow marigolds with white jasmine strands. The canopy is white and the structure is wreathed in white flower strings. A uniformed officer stands near the lower right, and a brass bell is held in the figure's other hand.

A man in a saffron-orange turban and orange robe, with long hair, holds a lit oil lamp toward the figures in aarti. Beside him stands a uniformed police officer in khaki with a peaked cap, and a red cloth drapes the platform. Incense smoke rises among the garlands.
