It looks like Jatropha gossypifolia known as Ranijada in South Chhattisgarh, Ramjada in Bolangir region of Orissa, Bhagrenda in Chhattisgarh Plains.
Many years back when the planners were thinking of using Jatropha curcas as biodiesel source, I suggested them through my articles that for first phase trial try this shrub (i.e. Jatropha gossypifolia) available in abundance in surroundings. If experiment is successful then go for large scale plantation. But they ignored it and without any planning planted Jatropha curcas in millions of acres. Today Jatropha is failed story and the world is making joke on us. This species of Jatropha i.e. Jatropha gossypifolia is relaitvely hardy and less attacked by insects. It is used in Traditional Healing. Bare facts about Poisonous Jatropha curcas. http://ecoport.org/ep?SearchType=earticleView&earticleId=877&page=-2 [Please ignore the "Sign in" key.
