Thanks Bimal ji for sharing this interesting information. Its really a great rediscovery by Dr. A.P.Das. But, it is sad that the threatened plant is still waiting for a proper protection! I hope the university will take efforts to fence the habitat ASAP and also to mass-multiply the plant and reintroduce them to the original habitat to save the species from threat of extinction.
