This is Microstegium ciliatum

Microstegium vimineum usually has solitary racemes and sometimes with a brach.

An excellent upload.

Thanks Manoj ji for correcting.

Garg ji, 

As per gbif Microstegium ciliatum is synonym of Microstegium fasciculatum 

https://www.gbif.org/species/search?via=data.gbif.org&dataset_key=d7dddbf4-2cf0-4f39-9b2a-bb099caae36c&q=Microstegium%20ciliatum

Moreover FOC also mentioned that both species are closely related and even difficult to distinguish at least in herbarium.

Here's the link 

http://www.efloras.org/florataxon.aspx?flora_id=2&taxon_id=200025695

So i think for now following gbif we should merge the Microstegium ciliatum page into Microstegium fasciculatum...
