Ficus religiosa
or sacred fig is a species of fig native to Nepal, India, Bangladesh, Myanmar, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, south-west China and Indochina.

, the fig or mulberry family. It is also known as the 'bo-tree' or peepal, peepul, or pippal.
Pisum sativum

(Indian banyan) and
Cajanus cajan
(pigeon pea) are not the botanical names of peepal tree.
