Dear Saroj ji,

Yes, it is Galactia striata var. villosa.

Thank you very much for ID my plant and providing identification image.

I am already shared all the available images, and images are captured by evening 07.30pm, so I think the flower was in clossing stage.

Kind regards, Sam

I think this is Galactia tenuiflora var. tenuiflora as per keys and details at
https://indiaflora-ces.iisc.ac.in/FloraPeninsular/herbsheet.php?id=4335&cat=7

Looks different from Galactia tenuiflora var. villosa as per keys and details at
