                      Members of the younger generation from the Newa community, the indigenous people of the Kathmandu Valley, are playing traditional musical instruments in front of the chariot of Seto Machhindranath before the official start of the chariot procession in Kathmandu, Nepal, on April 16, 2024. The procession, which honors the god of rain and is also known as Jana Baha Dyah Jatra, involves pulling the towering chariot of Seto Machindranath from one place to another over the course of three days.
