Thanks for giving me the lead.
I think, this herb could be Knorringia sibirica subsp. thomsonii (Polygonum sibiricum Laxm. var. thomsonii).
Kindly have a look at following link:

I had seen this herb near Village “Puga”, Ladakh. (Altitude: Approx: 15000ft)
Habitat: Wild (on the sandy soil Rock).
Bot. name: Knorringia sibirica subsp. thomsonii
(Syn: Polygonum sibiricum Laxm. var. thomsonii).
Family: Polygonaceae.

This is really a great finding …!
Surely Knorringia sibirica but not sure if subsp. thomsonii really exists. I am also searching relevant literature on this plant.
The Plant List (TPL) mentions K. sibirica subsp. thomsonii as a synonym of Polygonum sibiricum var. thomosonii Meisn. But the molecular studies carried out on Polygonum s.l., the genus Knorringia did not group within the Polygonum/ Persicaria clade, supporting a distinct status to this genus. Hopefully more studies would be carried out on this genus and in future TPL would consider upgrading their database.
