It is not Operculina turpethum;  operculina is a stout climber;exudes a milky juice when cut.  the leaves are ovate-cordate,  apex obtuse; nerve impressions clear. Capsule globose, 1-1.5 cm across, enclosed in persistent calyx. hence it is not operculina

Hi Sir, 
No question of it being I . alba at all . 
Operculina turpethum seems more likely , taking into account winged stem and fruit . 
As for the leaves , in OT leaf morphology is very very variable , at times leaves become nearly linear . 
Regards

Winged reddish stems; and fruit agree with Operculina turpethum but  without flower it is difficult for me to confirm the identity
