A night-time photograph of a long queue of devotees standing on a sandy open ground under tall street lamps. Men in white and cream shirts and trousers, and women in saris including a blue sari, wait in a line that stretches into the distance, with a few plastic chairs placed along the way. Orange flags and orange-draped structures line the far side of the grounds, and a blue-covered stall appears at the left. The people are facing away from the camera toward the event area.

Night photograph taken from behind a crowd of devotees standing in a line on sandy ground, facing a brightly lit yellow-canopied stage in the distance. Foreground figures include men in white shirts and light trousers, a man in a cap, and women in saris and a headscarf with long braided hair. Lamps line the open ground and a large screen is visible at the right edge. The stage area is too distant to make out individual figures clearly.

Night photograph of a large crowd standing behind a long bamboo or wooden barrier fence on an open dirt ground, lit by several bright white floodlights on poles. Many people in everyday clothing: men in white shirts and trousers, women in saris in purple, yellow and green, and a man in a red checked shirt. Several plastic folding chairs are placed along the barrier. Behind them are rows of trees, a multi-storey building, and stalls or banners at the edge of the field. No specific figure can be picked out as a presenter or speaker from appearance, and the scene shows only spectators.

Scattered paper lies on the sand. Orange flags and tents are visible near the event area.
