Nagchhatri- A Plant in Peril

Rampant extraction and heavy confiscations have generated concerns about “Nagchhatri”. Scientifically referred to as Trillium govanianum Wall. ex. D. Don [Syn. Trillidium govanianum (D. Don) Kunth)], (Family Melanthiaceae), the plant is now selling like a hot cake. Four years back the plant did not even feature amongst the 960 traded medicinal plant species of India.
