[Bimal Sar kar]

Attaching three images of Fagopyrum esculentum . The plant is cultivated here and consumed as a vegetable at this time of the year.

Here it is known as DHEMSI SHAK.

Hi, Bimal ji,

Was it a cultivated plant or wild as it also appears similar to Fagopyrum dibotrys ?

Appears to be Fagopyrum dibotrys as per images and references herein and as per keys in Flora of Pakistan.  

[JM Garg]

For the time being, taking it as Fagopyrum esculentum Moench only being cultivated as the details are not clear.

F. esculentum is the correct ID !
