Good morning I do not know this plant and Bengal Plants doesn't feature it. But, FoC<http://www.efloras.org/object_page.aspx?object_id=50894&flora_id=2> tells me that it is *Kochia scopari<http://www.theplantlist.org/tpl/record/kew-2333813> a* (L.) Schrad. (syn./accepted name Bassia scoparia (L.) A.J.Scott<http://plants.usda.gov/java/profile?symbol=BASC5>), as has been identified by Nidhan Sir.
F. B. I. mentions its distribution in North-West India. I thank Nidhan Sir for introducing me to a new plant. Regards, surajit On Wed, Feb 13, 2013 at 3:27 PM, J.M.
