I think it could be Gentian tianschanica (Gentiana decumbens) which differs from G. kurroo in smaller 1.5-3 cm long (as against 2-6 cm long) clustered (as against solitary), calyx tube shorter than lobes (and not longer) and basal leaves persistent at flowering time. Suresh ji may please confirm further.
