Many many many thanks, Vijayasankar ji ... very nice naming! Shrikant ji too has named this plant as वेल गेळा *vel gela* in his book Further Flowers of Sahyadri -- translates to ... climbing Randia. Some while ago got the local name in Kumta (Kannada) from Gurumurthi ji ... ಬಳ್ಳಿ ಕಾರೆ *balli kaare* ... translates to ... climbing Randia.
