It may be Cynanthus microphyllus or Cynanthus integer, But habit need to be check??

Good to know that there is another species growing in the area.

Thanks … I was not aware of this third sp (i.e Cynanthus integer).

Densely hairy throat indicate it as Cyananthus microphyllus. This species has variability in leaf width, more commonly leaves are narrower.

Cyananthus microphyllus Edgew. And its enemy From Uttarakhand : Attachments (4). 9 posts by 8 authors.

Cyananthus microphyllus Edgew. (Campanulaceae) is a common but beautiful alpine herb. Many times thousands of flowers can be seen on the ground surface making a floral carpet in alpine zones.

In the fourth picture a caterpillar is visible eating only soft succulent and glabrous corolla part leaving hairy calyx.
Here photographed in Nilkanth valley near Badrinath, Uttarakhand.

Very beautiful photographs of an eye catching plant with nice description.

Cyananthus incanus for validation. Seen at Chhiyalekh Valley of flowers on the way to Gunji on KM Route. Altitude 11000 feet Approx.

C. incanus is not known in Uttarakhand.
To me it appears as C. microphyllus. Pl compare with: /species/a—l/c/campanulaceae/cyananthus/cyananthus-microphyllus
