Udaipur Parade/Political Rally/?

While peering at shops rather narrow, but busy street, we heard a band approaching, led by a handsome young man on a decorated horse. Following the band was a decorated truck with Jain priests and a unclothed standing marble figure of a god. In front of the procession of the crowd was a cart with horn-shaped amplification and a man shouting out what sounded like a political rally. With the music playing, an older man in bare feet began dancing and shaking a percussive shaker with silver streamers in his hands. While it seemed rather incongruous to us, it must have made sense to the local onlookers.
