A photograph inside a white temple hall with polished pink-tinted floor reflecting the light, white pillars decorated with painted blue and red bands, and garlands strung across the openings. In the foreground, a man in white ceremonial clothes stands with hands joined near the left edge, while two women in red-and-gold saris stand nearby. Centre right, a man with his back to the camera wears a white dhoti with gold border and a white shirt, standing before a framed portrait on a cushioned wooden seat decorated with a red garland; the portrait shows a deity figure. A brass bell hangs from the ceiling at left, and a shrine with curtains and deity murti is visible at right. The man in front wears white and no identifiable saffron or ornate cues, so the appearance does not establish any candidate.2014-06-16Interior of a white temple hall with polished pink-tinted floor, arched colonnades, and a bell hanging from the ceiling.

A dark stone statue in the foreground faces a standing figure in an orange-red robe with a gold-striped cloth, long dark hair swept back, and beaded necklaces, standing at the side of the shrine. Behind him, another person in a similar orange-red robe stands near a draped shrine alcove, and a man in white clothes stands at the right edge. Inside the shrine, a deity murti is adorned with cloth and flowers, flanked by painted figures. The standing figure with long hair and beaded adornments is a probable match for the a person candidate described on the page; the other figures are attendants or devotees.2014-06-16June 16 20142014-06-1624 జనవరి 2006 +1 copiesFebruary 05 20102010-02-05A photograph of a white-walled temple hall with a polished dark granite floor, where a puja is being performed.
