Thanks Tapas ji and Garg ji,
I find the name is used by the Bhumij tribe as put in a white paper
<http://nopr.niscair.res.in/bitstream/123456789/6950/1/IJTK%205(4)%20(2006)%20554-558.pdf>
.

I find গোয়ালিয়া লতা in a couple of web pages:

   1. somewhere in blog
   <http://www.somewhereinblog.net/blog/vumiputro19/29889765>
   2. wikisource
   
<https://bn.wikisource.org/wiki/%E0%A6%AA%E0%A6%BE%E0%A6%A4%E0%A6%BE:%E0%A6%AE%E0%A6%A6%E0%A6%A8%E0%A6%AA%E0%A6%BE%E0%A6%B2-%E0%A6%A8%E0%A6%BF%E0%A6%98%E0%A6%A8%E0%A7%8D%E0%A6%9F%E0%A7%81.pdf/%E0%A7%A7%E0%A7%A7%E0%A7%AC>

Both the pages discuss plants; thus good to go with the name.

Thanks once again, and regards.
Dinesh
