[Assam] Bhedelilot --- Hindi name ! ! !

[Chan Mahanta]

Greetings again Dr. Shah.

The 'bhedai-lotaa' vine is Echites frutescens   ( Ref:  Aadhunik 
Oxomiya Xobdokwx, an Anglo-Assamese Dictionary, by Sumanta Chaliha).

I will try to get you some more material on it as as soon as I get to 
do a bit more research on it.

Hope this will give you a start.

Best.
