Paradesi Ji, 

The one suggested by you has white flowers. 

Please check.

This looks different

No ma'am,

this is also same, 

whe flower freshly opened like this, observe the same flower definitely that will change as white after mature,

and 

when under shade and fully moisture content available flower will Creamish or Yellowish white

When fully sun exposed and less minerals flower will be purely white,

I have observed these both. and 

Even purely  pink, yellow, dark blue flowers also will be in white, that color depends on edaphic factors .

[Aarti S. Khale]

Thanks Paradesi Ji.

But still it is a little difficult to be convinced. 

Since both look much different.

Regards,

Aarti 

[Paradesi Anjaneyulu]

Ok ma'am,

if possible share earlier plant photos too here,

With regards. 

[Aarti S. Khale]

Paradesi Ji,

Adding pictures of what has been identified on the group or by me as Abelmoschus ficulneus.

Regards,

Aarti

[Paradesi Anjaneyulu]

Ma'am,

Will you provide data as our EfI format for both species,

With regards. 

[Aarti S. Khale]

Paradesi Ji, 

Frankly I don't know what you mean by providing data in Efi format. 

I am not an expert in this field and my approach is always casual in finding out the names of plants that I have clicked. 

My identification of the pictures I have added subsequently (White flowers) is only based on my earlier post, other posts on Efloraofindia, Flowersofindia and other images available on Google search. 

Regards,

Aarti

[Paradesi Anjaneyulu]

It's OK ma'am,

I mean 

plant data, 

where you have collected ex. moist area, dry area, along the road(Habitat), habit (shrub, or herb) either prostrate or erect, height, flowers single or inflorescence tye, about fruit, seeds data only ma'am,

with that information, we will finalize the species,

With regards.

Paradesi Ji,

It was a very small plant by the roadside.

Gangapur Dam is in Nasik.

The area around is known as the Gangapur Grasslands.

I saw this small plant growing near the water body in the grass.

No seed formation as yet.

Aarti

Ok ma'am, 

When we develop like this data for two plants then we will know what are the similarities and dissimilarities,

then easy to identify,

With regards.

I will watch out for the fruits/seeds. 

[J.M. Garg]

I think this is Abelmoschus manihot subsp. tetraphyllus (Roxb. ex Hornem.) Borss.Waalk. var. tetraphyllus
(as per comparative images at Abelmoschus)

Garg Ji, Paradesi Ji,

Adding images of similar plants behind a fence close by.

There were many, some of them about five feet in height.
