Inside a canopied relief kitchen at night, volunteers prepare food for annadaan. A seated woman in a pale beige top and white head covering chops vegetables at a metal table, while a standing man in a light cream shirt and green hair net stands beside her. Behind them, a man in a striped shirt and white head covering stands near crates of produce, tomatoes and greens. Large steel cooking pots and vessels fill the tent, lit by overhead fluorescent tubes, with a blue plastic container on the table and foam boxes stacked at left.
