A photograph of a man with long swept-back dark hair and a shaved-looking forehead, wearing a saffron-orange wrap and a multi-strand rudraksha mala with a gold-toned necklace, holding a folded white paper or envelope in one hand and facing a younger man in a white t-shirt with a red shawl and a rudraksha mala and conference lanyard, who has his palms pressed together in anjali. Behind them, several people stand in white, orange and cream saris and white shirts, some with lanyards, in an indoor hall with red drapes. The older figure with the distinctive long hair, rudraksha and saffron wrap is a person candidate, though the face is not used for identification.
