There are many species with purple patch on the leaves, but the rhizome and flower are the identification features.

If the leaf is there, take some photos of the leaves on both the upper and lower side.  Photo of inflorescence would be more welcome.

Dear Dr. Sabu,

Cross section images of  young rhizomes are deep  bluish in color whereas
full grown is paler . These all are from the same rhizome I have brought
from Soureni, Mirik,Darjeeling District.

Thank you.
