Can it be Selinum wallichianum (DC.) Raizada & H.O. Saxena as per images under thread by dinesh ji: VoF Week :: DV :: 02 AUG 12 - 1244 :: Vicatia-like plant at Valley of Flowers ?

It looks different from Selinum vaginatum C.B.Clarke as per thread by Prashant ji at VOF Week: Apiaceae sp-- Selinum??? from VOF

Keys are available at Flora of Pakistan.

Selinum vaginatum is very distinct in pinnate bractlets which are clearly visible in my images.
