A crowded street procession in a South Indian town. Uniformed police officers in khaki with caps walk through the middle, many men wear white dhotis and white shirts, and a few wear saffron or orange clothing. Dense crowds of onlookers line the street in front of shopfronts, including a bicycle and mechanic shop. On the right, a large billboard shows film-style imagery of figures. A bald elderly man in a white shirt near the centre appears to be among the participants, but his identity cannot be confirmed from appearance. Several people carry umbrellas or bags, and a motorised rickshaw is parked at left.
