Randia can be possible, but then it should have opposite leaves, which I don't see in this photograph. Being a botanist doing research, I think Suresh ji should see whether leaves are alternate (Prunus) or opposite (Randia), also by section of fruit he can easily differentiate it.

Dr. Gurcharan Singh is correct. It is a *Lepidium*. There are three species of Lepidium reported from Tamil Nadu, *L. ruderale* L. (Roadside Pepper cress), *L. sativum* L. (Garden cress) and *L. virginicum *L. (Virginian Pepper cress). The other species are North Indian and Himalayan. The exact identification can be done only by examining fresh plants and floral parts.
