Kindly identify this climber photographed at the herbal park Tiruvannamalei, Tamil Nadu in September 2014.

Galactia villosa, I guess.

Thanks, … To me it appears close to Galactia tenuiflora (Willd.) Wight & Arn. as per An Excursion Flora of Central Tamilnadu, India By K. M. Matthew (1995- details with keys) 

Correct.
