Leaves look different from images at Dioscorea hispida
Also does not match with any of the existing species at efi site so far as per comparative images at Dioscorea

Garg ji, I am not seeing any pictures of leaves in this post. I am saying in context of your comment "Leaves look different ...".
Perhaps you are referring to the string of fruits. Picture of leaves would have helped in ID.
Those familiar with Dioscorea tubers will certainly help.
Regards.
Dinesh

Yes, possible (Dioscorea hispida), but difficult to confirm without leaves.
