Thanks Ushadi, Garg Ji,
Took a look at all pictures of Tinospora c. in our site, but did not
see such delicate skin on any of the bark. Another point is, the cross
section of stem at my home had 'Charkrika' exactly as that of this link is
from flickr, picture by Subhada Nikharge

.
Yes i also seen with hard stem with no delicate removable skin. Wandering
about the importance of delicate skin as identification character. Will be
glad if someone studying traditional medicine on our group also clarify
these facts.
Thanks
Sharmila
