A covered veranda beside a white-washed building is being used for sorting donated clothes after a relief effort. Several women and a girl in saris and salwar-style dress in yellow, orange, red and white stand and sit among heaps of folded and loose garments, stacked cardboard boxes and black and blue plastic bags. In the foreground a woman in a white sari sits on a low wall, and a yellow Shriram Fertilizers sack lies on the floor. On the right edge, a man in a white shirt and white dhoti with an orange-and-white shawl stands with his back partly toward the camera, looking on. Fans of cloth and folded blankets rest against the wall.
