Yes it is *Corchorus olitorius*. The typical threadlike projections near the base of the leaves.......But as Neil ji has said fruit is necessary to clinch the ID. I can see a fruit in the last two pictures and it appears to be 10 -ribbed(wild guess?) It has to be 5 valved in C.olitorius.3-4 valved in many other species. By the way how do one know about valves? Any illustrations? Tanay Ji Pankaj Ji?
