Ganesh Looks like that your plants might be infested with Brinjal Fruit Borer that is a very destructive and complicated insect. So you can review at plantix library for more information about this pest and control measures. You have to know it's Life-cycle and stages of the infestations. Please note that adult moth doesn't cause any damage. The larval stages are detrimental to eggplant. If the larvae penetrate into shoot or fruit it becomes absolutely difficult to resist crop damages. So, most wise methods to combat this pest is to be targeted at it's egg or adult stages. For controlling eggs and adults, you can review at plantix library at Biological control section and get more information about this pest and control measures. Controlling of eggs though difficult by biological methods, please note that you can purchase egg-parasitoids trichocards or vial in some pesticide stores. For controlling the adults, you can use Sex-pheromone traps for mass trapping. If some eggs germinate to produce larvae and infect as in my picture you can spray Profenophos + Cypermethrin or Emamectin benzoate and soil application of Carbofuran may reduce the gravity of infestation at a considerable level. Please review at plantix library for comparison or my picture to have more ideas on this pest. Thanks for your posts!

Dear Ganesh, According to your feedback, seems like that you overlooked the fecundity of insects proliferation. So, in your field the insect multiplied by overlapping generations. I should recommend Cypermethrin + Profenofos for knockdown activity 😂
