    With two large caveats immediately apparent to anyone familiar with Hinduism:

    Sorry about the quality... I downloaded it (it's my own photo, just not on my phone) and it appeared in the thumbnail for a random album, but wasn't in the album. Or any album. So it's a crop of the album thumbnail.

    Project Swastik was a roads improvement programme in northern India. The swastika symbolises protection and it's ubiquitous in India (and Asia).
