Thank you but I could not find the name of the species. It grows in a sacred forest.--

Thanks! So it must be Violet odorata? It grows in a sacred forest. --

Hi, Abanda ji,

Any feedback in the matter pl.

I doubt it to be Viola odorata as it is introduced in India.

Is it reported as wild in your Floras?

Thanks, Abanda ji.

It may be Viola hamiltoniana as POWO & Checklist of Nepal consider Viola arcuata Blume to be a syn. of it.

I looked for specimens in GBIF from India, which I think confirms it as per specimens below:
