According to leaf characteristic it could be One of the species from Curcuma longa C. amada (mango ginger), C. angustifolia (wildarrowroot, narrow-leaved turmeric), C. aromatica (Cochin turmeric, wild turmeric) and C. zedoaria (zedoary).
It is very difficult to identify a plant without reproductive parts. However, it could be a Zingiberaceae plant.
ya i know that, but unfortunately cant manage to collect the reproductive parts.
thanks any way
Could you make it clear if it had a rhizom ? a bulb ?
Araceae and Maranthaceae seem not to be completely out of question ...
Asuming any taxa is not very proper, but still I see more possibility for some species of Tacca (Taccaceae). Please check.

It doen't seen neither Curcuma nor Maranta.
You should send more pictures.
It could be some Zingiberaceae species. But you should upload more detailed pictures, such as flowers, etc...
I that it is necessary to eliminate the curcuma kind because of the veins from the sheets and even the roots which seem to me, fasciculé or even tangled up (the plant presents neither bulb nor rhizome) ¶ It is necessary to await the appearance of the reproductive bodies (flowers or other) ¶
