Outdoor procession with many devotees in saffron and orange shawls and dhotis, some in white garments with orange borders. Two large umbrellas with colourful tassels, one in red, green and yellow, are held aloft over the crowd. A man in the foreground with a long beard and rudraksha mala raises his hands in namaskar, and a woman in an orange sari with a flower garland smiles. Silver trishul-topped staffs and a truck with partial lettering appear behind the crowd, with banana plants and a building in the background.
