A roadside welcome on a wide city street. A silver Ford SUV with Karnataka plate KA04 IN 4444 drives past, and a saffron flag is mounted on its front. In the foreground a man in an all-white shirt and white trousers walks barefoot toward the vehicle. Along the pavement a group of people line up holding white flags on poles; a young woman in a green-bordered cream sari presses her palms together in greeting, and an older man in a red checked shirt does the same. Schoolchildren in white shirts and dark trousers stand among them. Shops, a bus and a small white van are behind them under overcast skies.
