Thanks, Paradesi ji,
I do not think it is Spermacoce remota as per images and details & references herein.
But it may be not be Spermacoce pusilla Wall. either.
May be some other genus ?

After through search in Flora of China, Flora of Nepal, Efi site etc., I feel it is closer to Scleromitrion tenelliflorum (Blume) Korth. (syn: Hedyotis tenelliflora Blume) as per
Catalogue of Life  Flora of China  FOC illustration  GBIF (high resolution specimens)

On further checking,
I think it should be Scleromitrion verticillatum (L.) R.J.Wang (syn: Hedyotis verticillata (L.) Lam.) as per differences between closely related species at
GBIF (high resolution specimens) FOC illustration  Flora of China
