A photograph of a long, high-ceilinged dining hall with wooden-framed windows and ceiling fans. Rows of people sit on white plastic chairs at long tables with steel plates and cups, mostly in white clothing, several wearing white dhotis or kurtas, eating a meal. Some attendees are women in saris. This appears to be an annadhaan meal setting in an ashram hall.
