The fruits of Trapa natans ssp natans in Kashmir are generally sold bioled
and peeled, with stalks removed. Those of ssp. bispinosa are often sold (in
Delhi markets; same must be truw for Lucknow) along with stalks which are
very stout. That could be reason for confusion.

Dinesh ji, yes I guessed this plant to be A. sericea from hairy
leaves, silvery white beneath, bracts silky hairy and with parallel
venation. However the plant on your flickr link seems to be A.
involucrata rather than A. sericea. Do take close ups of bracts and
sepals hence forth. Regards, Shrikan
