A large outdoor procession moves down a tree-lined road as a dense crowd of devotees presses behind golden barricades on the right, many raising phones to photograph. Ahead, saffron-robed sannyasis and white-clad devotees walk beneath a row of ornate yellow and orange umbrellas, while red flags on tall poles lead the way. A bare-chested man in white dhoti and a saffron-clad figure walk near the front. Above the crowd, a decorated float or palanquin carries a deity murti adorned with garlands and flowers under a canopy. Roadside banners, flags and signboards line the street, and a blue circular sign hangs on a pole at upper left.
