Outdoor procession in a crowded camp with blue and pink tarpaulin tents. A decorated float is covered with green banana-style leaves and two loudspeaker horns; a seated figure in the centre wears an orange robe, an orange garland and a saffron-coloured turban, and sits on a golden throne with peacock-style carving. Behind them, several people in saffron and orange robes stand on the float, and a man in a white and orange outfit walks in front holding a flag. Numerous devotees in orange shirts, a woman in a pink and yellow sari, and people in white garments line the road, with orange flags fluttering in the foreground.
