This acc to me has some medicinal value for stopping the oozing blood from wound. You just have to put the cotton of that Ramban on wound. Hence in marathi Ramban remedy is the one which is highly effective as Ramas arrow.

May be you call it Ram Bhan because it looks like an ARROW !! It emerges in one of the early stages hydrosere (vegetation succession among aquatic plants), so as the water decreases, it's population will decrease automatically. But sometimes also due to pollutants in the water.
