Grows wild through out punja during summer and rains.
I guess ‘punja’ refers to Punjab.
It looks like an Artemisis species. Thanks, …

To me it looks like Tamarix.
I think this is Artemisia scoparia, which is quite common in Haryana and Punjab plains..
Pl. see if your close ups match with images of … at Artemisia scoparia
