Anisomeles indica from Mussoorie Chakrata Road near Kalsi

[Gurcharan Singh]

I hope this plant is Anisomeles indica, earlier uploaded by Balkar ji from Panipat. Please validate. If it is true then surely plant on Flowers of India is not correctly identified. It has uniformly mauve flowers, calyx almost tomentose and leaves much narrower, thicker and densely hairy.
