It is certain that it is NOT Gentiana. There are no inerlobal plicae.
Are these pictures in natural orientation or need to be rotated to see actual natural look. I have never seen Gentians in this orientation.
It looks more closer to Gentianella maddeni (C.B.Clarke) Airy-Shaw

Thanks Rawat ji for the lead.  Yes, it does look closer to Gentianella sp. All these pics are in natural orientation and this plant was spotted growing on a rock..

Pl. see the following:
A REVISION OF GENTIANELLA, COMASTOMA AND GENTIANOPSIS (GENTIANACEAE) IN NEPAL by E. Aitkena- Edinburgh Journal of Botany / Volume 64 / Issue 02 / July 2007, pp 253-268- 
Abstract- The genus Gentianella in Nepal is revised and five species are recognized: G. angustiflora Harry Sm., G. azurea (Bunge) Holub, G. glanduligera Airy Shaw, G. lowndesii Harry Sm. and G. moorcroftiana (Wall. ex G.Don) Airy Shaw. Gentianella maddenii (C.B.Clarke) Airy Shaw, usually treated as a distinct species, is placed in synonymy of G. moorcroftiana.
