This plant is actually Boesenbergia hamiltonii Mood, S.Dey & L.M.Prince. Boesenbergia longiflora has yellowish flowers, and is not found in India, according to the paper
The history and identity of Boesenbergia longiflora (Zingiberaceae) and descriptions of five related new taxa
Gardens’ Bulletin Singapore 65(1): 47–95. 2013
See the attached images.
  Cheers!

It is correct. The colour of B. longiflora is not yellow but almost similar and present in Meghalaya.

Dear Saroj,
   Boesenbergiae longiflorae (Wall.) Kuntze affinis is not actually a synonym. The word affinis means it is closely related to Boesenbergia longiflora. Boesenbergia hamiltonii does not have any valid name as a synonym.
