A street view taken from an elevated vantage point, looking down a busy Tamil Nadu town road lined with palm and shade trees. A white Maruti van with a luggage-laden roof rack and a blue Tamil-script banner on its windscreen leads a line of cars and buses. Pedestrians walk along the pavement, including a person in a dark maroon garment and two men in white, and several motorcyclists ride on the road. Shops and multi-storey buildings stand beside the road, and a yellow building with a Tamil-script sign is on the right. The image shows only a passing street scene with no visible ritual or dignitary at the front of the procession.
