This signifies the ethnomedicinal values of plant species occurring in the study area. The study.thus, highlights the potential of ethnobotanical research and the need for documentation of traditional knowledge pertaining to the utilization of plants as medicine. Pharma-chemical analysis is obligatory in order to authenticate their accuracy and future prospects in the drug development with due benefit-sharing with the primary stakeholders for the greater advantage of mankind. The study could play a significant role in resolving the controversies pertaining to biopiracy and Intellectual Property Rights. This paper discusses the concept of indigenous knowledge, its relevance in scientific discourse and the need for harnessing it for national development in Shahdol division.
