A crowded indoor hall with white walls and barred windows, filled with a dense mass of men, women and children standing and seated. Many wear white shirts and white dhotis, and several men have red-and-gold rosette badges pinned to their clothing. In the foreground a man in a white shirt and dhoti gestures with an outstretched arm, while a boy in a green shirt watches nearby. A red carpet runs along the floor beside a white plastic chair. Overhead a bright light fixture is visible at the left edge. No individual is clearly identifiable as a person from appearance, so no candidate is marked.
