A smiling person in a saffron-orange robe and matching orange turban stands in a doorway, cutting a pink ribbon stretched across the opening of a freshly painted room with pale green walls and yellow side walls. A white flower garland with red rudraksha-style beads hangs over the robe. Behind them, a man in a white dhoti and shawl and a man in dark clothing press their palms together in greeting. Other attendants in orange headbands and an officer in uniform stand nearby, one holding a bouquet and a garland. A small television sits on a shelf to the right, and an electrical wall socket is visible. Plausibly an inauguration of a new facility at a KAILASA centre, but no legible sign names the event.
