A large procession of women and men walks along a dusty road beneath a concrete flyover at a river festival site. Many women wear white and cream saris with red or orange shawls, and the men wear white dhotis and kurtas. Several carry orange-red flags on poles, and one man on the right holds a tall ornate banner with floral and geometric patterns and a golden finial. Behind them a long banner shows several small portrait photographs and Hindi text, and another banner has a painted figure. A grey car is parked at the left edge. The scene looks like a yatra or ritual procession.
