A photograph of women serving prasadam at a long steel counter during an evening event. Several women in white and cream clothing wear gloves and hand out packets and sweet balls, while a large steel bowl of savoury yellow-brown food sits in the foreground. A young woman in a yellow sari with a white forehead mark holds a packet and smiles, and an older woman in a white sari with a gold border and rudraksha mala stands at right. Bright lights and marigold-coloured garlands appear behind the counter.2010-11-20January 01 20192019-01-01Annadhan in 20152015-01-01 +1 copiesJanuary 31 20162016-01-31December 16 20102010-12-16Evening photo inside a large blue-roofed tent hall with a metal truss frame and string lights. Crowds of devotees in white and pastel saris and kurtas queue and stand in rows; in the foreground a woman in a light top holds a steel plate, an older woman in a purple sari and a woman in a pink shawl stand nearby, and a woman in a red-bordered white sari holds a plate. Large steel containers and water bottles sit along the tables at the back. The page places this at a convention, but no a person figure is visibly identifiable, so no candidate is claimed.2009-02-28July 28 20062006-07-28A photograph of a large group of women seated on the floor of a hall performing a ritual with brass plates and small lamps. Many wear rust-red and orange saris with gold borders, rudraksha malas and bangles; a few wear white saris with black malas. Several hold small brass cups or flower-decked plates before them, and a woman in the foreground wears an orange sari with a red border, with white sacred marks on her forehead. Pink flowers, brass dishes and water bottles sit on mats in front, with red curtains and stacked chairs behind. The setting resembles a group puja with offerings, though no specific ritual is named.2013-10-29 +1 copiesFebruary 28 20092009-02-28August 24 20142014-08-24 +1 copiesAnnadhan in 20122012-01-01 +1 copiesOctober 23 20152015-10-23
