Yes. In Jain diet, bhindi (okra) is generally permissible for householders because it is not a root/underground vegetable.

Basic Jain guidelines to follow:

• Wash thoroughly, cut after washing, and check for any insects/worms.
• Cook fresh and consume in daylight; avoid eating at night.
• Avoid if you have taken special vows where vegetables are restricted (e.g., Ayambil, certain Paryushan/Chaturmas observances). In such vows, keep only what your pachkhan allows.

Notes on traditions:

• Both Shwetambar and Digambar householders may eat bhindi with the above care. Monastics observe stricter rules.
