Crowd of devotees standing and gathered along a concrete ledge outdoors, many wearing orange-saffron shawls draped over white, black and patterned clothing. A woman in a white kurta and orange shawl holds a handbag; a woman in a black top and orange shawl wears a long beaded necklace. A woman in a yellow-and-orange sari leans on a railing near a black lamp post. A white-haired woman in a striped top rests her chin on her arms on the ledge. In front, steel jugs and vessels sit on the wall. A brick-and-concrete building forms the backdrop. No single central speaker is visible, and the scene appears to be a gathering of around 30 people.
