Thanks, Kenneth ji. and Garg ji It is no doubt from Genus Cordia from Boraginaceae family.It does appear to be *Cordia dichotoma.*(Bhokar)The flower pattern in the picture also matches that in Shrikant's book. Only apparent difference which came to my mind is the leaf size and pattern which in this tree appears to be larger than the one I had observed earlier. Anyway One more important observation........There is one big Bhokar tree nearby which was full of green leaves unlike the dry deciduous pattern which this tree was showing. Do you know if this can happen? Satish
