A dense crowd of devotees, mostly men in white shirts and dhotis, packs a covered outdoor area beneath a decorated canopy with red, orange and green patterned fabric and striped valance. Two men in white shirts stand on a raised platform, one holding a small black object, near a banana plant and green leaves. A uniformed police officer in a cap stands in the foreground among the crowd. Bright daylight glows through the front opening, and a stone pillar stands at right beside the gathering.
