This one seems to be Ocimum gratissimum or O. basilicum
The plant rather reminds me of some species of Impatiens
it is certainly not Ocimum gratissimum nor O. basilicum. but cant say which plant it is.
There is a match of Scutellaria sp? Looks like Scutellaria sp. I hope this plant is Scutellaria discolor var. discolor . Please see in the detailed description of this plant from “The eFlora of China” {link provided below}.
I think it should be Scutellaria violacea B.Heyne ex Benth. as per images herein.

One confusion flowering time is not matching according to Flowers of India and Annotated Checklist of flowering Plants of Nepal .
Does not matches with images of this species at
Did not find any match to the listed. Only it looks nearer based on altitude but flowering period differ. However, flowering period gradually becoming early than the recorded .
http://www.efloras.org/florataxon.aspx?flora_id=110&taxon_id=129910
I think matches with images at Scutellaria violacea B.Heyne ex Benth. as per images herein.
