The images show some characteristic features of Rubiaceae including the bifid stigma and persistent calyx in fruit. I remember Gurcharan sir posting a similar plant 2 years back from the same area, around the same time. A late blooming herb towards the end of monsoon in the grasslands.

Swertia would have nectaries/glands present at the base of the inner face of petals which are clearly lacking here.

Regards,

Anurag.
