Photograph of a narrow, dimly lit temple corridor with stone walls and warm lamplight. In the foreground, a uniformed police officer in khaki shirt, khaki trousers, a khaki peaked cap with a badge and a dark leather belt raises his right hand in a salute-like gesture. Beside him stands a man in a white shirt and white dhoti with a sacred thread. Behind them, a figure in an orange-red garment and a garland walks among other devotees, and a dark-toned man in a yellow-striped shirt is at the left edge. No figure is clearly identifiable as a person, so the figure in the orange garment is described only by role and clothing.
