Outdoor event under a colourful striped canopy with a red, yellow and teal backdrop. A man with long curly hair in an orange-red robe stands at a yellow-draped podium holding a microphone and speaking. Beside him a man in white kurta with an orange shawl reads from a paper. Seated in front on wooden chairs, several saffron-robed sannyasis with shaved heads and white beards listen, one resting his hand at his face. A garland of white and purple flowers hangs on the podium. Green trees fill the background. The man at the podium has distinctive long hair and saffron clothing; the identity is uncertain from appearance alone.
