Thanks Usha di.

Not sure whether this plant is native to India; it is distributed pan-tropically. I think it must be native.

Thank you Saroj ji

Ahhhh !!!!!! The leaves !!!! 

So distinct !! Key to ID !!! Along with short fruit pod . 

I was waiting for this species to appear in any of the forums I frequent . 

Happy to see it in beautifully detailed post by inimitable Dinesh sir . 

It has a pantropical distribution , species of coastal habitat . 

(In Surat I have a Canavalia species which does not fit completely into any described taxon . People have called it C . rosea on facebook , I never agreed . I tentatively call it C. catahrtica , but description for this taxon is a partial fit only . I am waiting for fruits to mature , then I shall bring it here for discussion )
