I don't think so.
I checked many pictures and descriptions. I. bicolor should be bicolored, rosa and yellow like here http://www.mrimpatiens.com/scripts/gallery.php?gallery=species&page=2&sort= (upper photo).
Lower photo is of African species, mentioned in my earlier post.

Ooops... I pushed button to fast, not giving probable identification.
I suppose this plant, due rusty markings, shape of lateral petals and lower sepal is rosa form of I. devendrae.
Similar plants were depicted in several posts from western Himalaya.
In comparison with original description I don't see any other differences than more rosa colour.
Best regards            Wojciech
