Varanasi wedding

 


A generater car with huge megaphones turned up to a painful volume for wedding procession


Lightwallahs carrying lights on their head connected to the generator car

(the woman lightwallah carries a little baby)



Saraswati puja (goddess of learning and music). These pujas are everywhere on this festival and I had to run quickly away from this puja because there was such incredibly loud distorted music blasting from within that it is surely making these people deaf.

 


The next day they throw the Sarawati statues in the Ganges
