Dinesh ji perhaps your another visit may not be necessary if you go through the interesting discussion in Flora of China http://www.efloras.org/florataxon.aspx?flora_id=2&taxon_id=250096307 http://www.efloras.org/florataxon.aspx?flora_id=2&taxon_id=242322993 G. hirtifolium is out of question as 6 leaves can easily be counted. It seems G. asperifolium is a very polymorphic species, the white to yellowish flowered populations are all considered as part of this species, whereas red flowered (and larger flower, which struck me from day one) specimens are now treated as a distinct species Galium blinii. Important to note that these red flowered specimens (according to Flora of China) have often been treated as synonym of G. asperifolium var. sikkimense which typically has yellowish-greenish flowers. Interesting to note that another red-flowered species *G. craticulatum* as endemic to Bhutan. with totally glabrous stem and sparsely retrorsely scabrid leaves. In one or two leaves in second photograph I can see consipicous retrorsely scabrid leaf margin. Perhaps you can Please find out and enlarge a clear view of stem to see if stem is glabrous or scabrid to confirm it further.
