… with … thought; my belief too: Vigna radiata (family Fabaceae).
It will be helpful if some one of our friends put some clarification related to at least these three species found distributed in northern Western Ghats:
1) Vigna radiata (L.) R.Wilczek … surprisingly does not find its entry in Shrikant ji’s FOS or FFOS
2) Vigna sublobata (Roxb.) Babu & S.K.Sharma … synonym of Vigna radiata var. setulosa (Dalzell) Ohwi & Ohashi
3) Vigna trilobata (L.) Verdc.

This flower also frequently encountered in Karjat area, this herb had a twining habit if I am not mistaken.
