Aug&lt;em&gt;. &lt;/em&gt;DC., commonly known as Parpata in South India. &lt;strong&gt;Material and Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; Pharmacognostical, physicochemical, nutritional evaluation along with the TLC profiling and preliminary phytochemical screening was carried out. &lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;Histological study of different parts of the plant revealed the presence of different cellular structures viz. stem showed the presence of multi cellular to unicellular trichomes, collateral vascular bundles, starch grains etc. Mesophyll of the leaves was embedded with starch grains with clustered calcium oxalate and prism shaped crystals. Anomocytic stomata were present on both the epidermis of the leaf. Powder microscopy exhibited multi cellular trichomes, clustered calcium oxalate, fibres etc. Physicochemical and histochemical studies revealed the presence of various secondary metabolites and different minerals within the acceptable limits. Thin layer chromatographic profiling showed different spots suggesting the presence of specific phytoconstituents in different extracts. The plant also revealed good nutritional value with calorific value of about 245 kcal/100g; Vitamin C 112 mg/100 g and higher amount of calcium etc. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion: &lt;/strong&gt;The results are beneficial to establish the quality control parameters of the plant species and may be served as future reference for the identification and authentication of the genuine crude drug and also provide sufficient data to recognize the use of the plant as dietary suppliment.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Original Article</style></work-type><section><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">31</style></section><auth-address><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Shantha Thirumalai Ramaseshan&lt;sup&gt;1*&lt;/sup&gt;, Patchaimal Pitchaiah&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt;, Prathapa Reddy Maramreddy&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt;, Vandana Bharti&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt;, Kishore Kumar Ramakrishna&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt;, Venkateshwarlu Gaddam&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt;, Devesh Tewari&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt;, Chinmay Rath&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt;, Anupam Mangal&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt;, Padhi Madan Mohan&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt; and Dhiman Kartar Singh&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

It is also extensively cultivated for its pods used as vegetable for its high nutritive value, antidiabetic properties and for the source of guargum.&lt;strong&gt; Methods: &lt;/strong&gt;Macroscopy, microscopy, powder microscopy, histochemical studies and preliminary phytochemical studies on the pods of Goraksha has been carried out highlighting its importance along with important diagnostic characters, which will help in the identification of pods both in fresh form as well as in dry form. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; Study revealed presence of distantly arranged elongated uniseriate warty trichomes in the outer most layer of epidermis, presence of stone cells, simple starch grains and very small calcium oxalate crystals in the hypodermal region. Presence of unevenly thickened row of palisade layer of macro sclereids in the outer most layer of cotyledon region. Phytochemical studies revealed the presence of alkaloids carbohydrates, phenols, proteins, saponins, starch, steroids, and tannins. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion: &lt;/strong&gt;The pharmacognostical standardization revealed the presence of various specific characters which are important for the identification of the genuine pods of&lt;em&gt; Cyamopsis tetragonoloba&lt;/em&gt; (L.)
