A night-time outdoor gathering where a crowd stands with eyes closed or lowered, apparently in meditation. In the foreground a woman in a brown paisley-print sari with a dark striped border stands centrally, with a small red bindi and bangles. Beside her a young girl in a white outfit with a white shawl stands with hands folded, and at the left edge a small boy in an orange polo shirt stands. Behind them men in white shirts and grey or lilac shirts stand close together. White plastic chairs sit in the lower right and a metal barrier runs behind the rows. Dim lights glow in the distance. No a person candidate is visible, so no appearance-based identification is made.
