Large crowd of mostly men in white shirts and dhotis fills a long open-sided tent with a corrugated metal roof and bamboo rafters, with a green floor covering. Many attendees wear white lanyard badges. In the centre a man in a beige shirt raises his arms overhead, while others stand with hands folded or clasped. A boy in a red kurta and white pyjamas stands at right beside a woman in an orange sari. Framed portraits hang from the poles: one labelled with a readable caption, and others showing bearded figures in green and white. Fluorescent tubes line the poles.
