Along the street leading from Godwalia down to the Ganges there is a fork in the road, the right fork being a short distance down to Dashashwamedh Ghat. It was along here that I heard drums being played, and noticed this group of people dancing in the street.
The next day, I saw a similar procession, from which the picture below was taken. It seemed to me that the idea was for celebratory marriage processions to move from Godwalia down to the Ganges. What the picture certainly displays is a variety of emotions, from the joyous to the compliant to the cynical to the distant to the proud.
