Dear Saroj Kasaju,
Thanks for your mail. Astragalus is the largest genus in angiosperm. It is difficult to identify the species with photographs. However, it seems your plants belong to Astragalus strictus Grah. ex Benth. It will be better if you add your affiliation /identification in your mail.
Thanks!

Dear sir,I am a plant enthusiast and have been shooting wild plants for a long time.During my trip to the Nubra Valley in August 2014 I had an opportunity to shoot one Astragaluswhich I could not identify so far. While browsing through the net I came across your literatureand I guess my sp. is something similar to Astragalus zacharensis Bunge described in your paper.Could you please have a look at the images and suggest your opinion.Image quality is not so good, however.Thank you.Saroj Kasaju
