Many thanks Neil ji for the location ... will try to reach there to explore
this plant.
Agreeing with Satish Pardeshi ji, this *Capparis sepiaria
[Mastodi].jpg*almost looks like
*C. zeylanica* (which of course you are well aware of).
Let us wait for comments.

 langauage
 Justicia wynadensis is called as madde toppu or AaTi soppu. AaTi in kodava

 Hi Dinesh,

 Just made a small study on Justicia betonica in Kannada and Kodavas

 - There is no such word aati in any of the Kannada dictionaries I
 refered.

 - Kodavas use Kannada words while speaking in their language.   Based on
 that I think.
 Madd means Medicinal ) (In Kannada its Madd, (Madh),  Maddu, )

 - (Tokku ) Soppu (meaning Green leaves)

 So, Madd Tokku translates to Medicinal green leaves. Not the exact
 species.
  Justicia Betonica is indeed a medicinal plant as per the link you have
 mentioned.

 Here is a link, frlht  mentions Betonica justicia as Kaadu kanakambara.
 (Forest(Wild) crossandra.
 More acceptable.

 Dear Kannada-knowing friends,

 Please help in providing valid words for names of *Justicia betonica* in

 Madd Toppu (Justicia betonica) as it is called in Kodava parlance
 (Aati Soppu in Kannada).

 Giby ji.This looks more like a

 leaves. Please check the leaf beneath whether it is glaucus
 (whitish/grayish). You can easily come to a conclusion whether it is a
 Lauracean by smelling the crushed leaf, you get a spicy smell on crushing
 the leaf
 Ritesh ji..The plant *appears very
 close to Litsea cubeba* (Lauraceae) which is grown in most of the houses

 As per KB Sadananda (Rtd. Deputy Editor-Kannada Encyclopedia, University
 of Mysore) and K Sampathkumar (lecturer, Davanagere PU college), in kodava
 langauage
 Justicia wynadensis is called as madde toppu or AaTi soppu. AaTi in kodava
 is ASHADA a  during which KASHAYA (juice) of justicia wynadensis is prepared
 and consumed on healthy grounds. It is not Justicia betonica.

 Hi Dinesh,

 Just made a small study on Justicia betonica in Kannada and Kodavas

 - There is no such word aati in any of the Kannada dictionaries I
 refered.

 - Kodavas use Kannada words while speaking in their language.   Based on
 that I think.
 Madd means Medicinal ) (In Kannada its Madd, (Madh),  Maddu, )

 - (Tokku ) Soppu (meaning Green leaves)

 So, Madd Tokku translates to Medicinal green leaves. Not the exact
 species.
  Justicia Betonica is indeed a medicinal plant as per the link you have
 mentioned.

 Here is a link, frlht  mentions Betonica justicia as Kaadu kanakambara.
 (Forest(Wild) crossandra.
 More acceptable.

 Dear Kannada-knowing friends,

 Please help in providing valid words for names of *Justicia betonica*in 
 Kannada and Coorgi.

 An extract from a post in Kodaga Community web site:
 Madd Toppu (Justicia betonica) as it is called in Kodava parlance
 (Aati Soppu in Kannada).
 ...
 http://www.kodagucommunity.com/2008/08/today-is-kakkada-padhinutt.html


 Thus,
 ... would *madd* be:
 1) ಮಡ್ಡ
 2) ಮದ್ದ
 3) yet different than the above


 ... would *toppu* be:
 1) ಟೊಪ್ಪು
 2) ತೊಪ್ಪು
 3) yet different than the above

 ... would *aati* be:
 1) ಆಟಿ
 2) ಆತಿ
 3) yet different than the above
