Thanks Garg ji for validating the post; requesting for further validation ... I am posting a picture of fruit of the plant photographed at base village of Manikgad, posted for listing names. The plant is cultivated, its fruit is comparatively longer (and there are more varieties bearing yet longer fruits). The wild species bears fruit just about an inch long. I believe the posted plant (for listing names) is *Abelmoschus esculentus*. Please validate again.
