Hello Tanay ji, The image shown shows galls - I am familiar with galls. The phenomenon we saw was not galls.
I asked my father-in-law, Mr Nandan Kalbag. He mentioned that he had observed two afflictions. One was a virus disease and the other affliction probably what I referred to was a fungal infection which occurred after heavy infestation by aphids.
