Several men in white ritual clothing sit nearby, and others in dark jackets and orange cloth stand behind them. The scene suggests a riverside puja at the confluence of the sacred rivers.

In the foreground a woman with long dark hair in an orange saffron garment sits cross-legged on a mat with hands pressed together in prayer, with a small brass or steel plate and cups near her.
