Dear Prashant ... my mistake earlier. This indeed is, *Dioscorea belophylla* ... here seen is the male flower.
... Male spikes 2.5-4 cm long, 1-2 together in the axils or sometimes forming leafless panicles; stamens 6, all antheriferous. Reference: Flora of Pakistan ... http://www.efloras.org/florataxon.aspx?flora_id=5&taxon_id=242422012 Regards.
