Malayalam names are ചുണ്ടപ്പാർവ്വതി Chundapparvathy, കരിങ്കുറിഞ്ഞി Karinkurinji Many many thanks …, for help with Malayalam name ചുണ്ടപ്പാർവ്വതി Chundapparvathy … It is found on the Wikipedia page.
But I was not able to find any link / reference for കരിങ്കുറിഞ്ഞി Karinkurinji … perhaps some error in AI overview of Google’s search,
For now I am adding only ചുണ്ടപ്പാർവ്വതി Chundapparvathy
Kannada and Malayalam name added …
