Pl. check comparative images at Saussurea However, I could not find any match as per comparative images at Saussurea
Closer to Saussurea roylei.
Thank you sirs! The only comparative image of S. roylei I can find is this one in which the plant has gone to seed.

I am not sure about the id as by specimens at GBIF. Saussurea picridifolia (Hand.-Mazz.) Y.S.Chen & Qian Yuan. ??
But I could not find listing in Nepal and India !
I guess it is mentioned about its distribution in India and Nepal in Flora of pan-himalaya !
Leaves look different from specimens at GBIF
