Daytime street procession in a small Indian town under a pale sky. Tractors pull decorated trailers draped in red and white cloth, garlanded with flowers and red flags, moving down a paved road lined with shops, utility poles and trees. Men in white kurta and red cloth walk beside the lead tractor, one holding a red flag. A megaphone is mounted on a pole at right, and onlookers, including children, gather along the roadside. Trailers at left carry white and red covers with purple flower garlands. Crowd appears moderate in size.
