Dear Friends,

This could be Euphorbia ligularia. Have a look at following link.

As per Kew World Check list and Eflora of Pakistan E. ligularia Roxb. is a synonym of E. neriifolia L.   As per my information the two closely related species distinguished on the basis of stem cross section are E. nivulia Buch-Ham. (stem cylindrical; syn: E. neriifolia Roxb. non L.) and E. neriifolia L. (stem angled but not winged). Another closely related species E. royleana Boiss. (syn: E. pentagona Royle) from North India (Danda thor) with angled produced into undulating wings.

    To me whatever branches are seen are not angular, and suggest E. nivulia Buch.-Ham. Further close-ups of branches would be helpful
