Fruit hairs are not clear. Pl. see
http://www.efloras.org/object_page.aspx?object_id=94686&flora_id=2 Do you have any other image showing side view of the fruits clearly? I guess ID is correct ! Melastoma malabathricum ‘Alba’ As all the stamens are of the same size, it can not be Melastoma. .
Altitude : ca.1,000 m

I guess this should be Osbeckia nepalensis var. albiflora Lindl. ??
Google :
Osbeckia nepalensis Hook. (Nepal Osbeckia): Reported to be present in areas such as Ralvawng in Mizoram. Pl. post a high res. image to see the details.
Looks different as per images at
https://efloraofindia.com/efi/osbeckia-nepalensis/ 1 high res. image. I think looks different from images at Melastoma malabathricum ‘Alba’. As all the stamens are of the same size, it can not be Melastoma. .

Another plant from Silchar seen by my daughter in August,18.
I have only one picture of this too and no further details.
Osbeckia Species?
Yes Close up details of calyx are required.
However, check Osbeckia stellata Buch.-Ham. ex Ker Gawl., the most common species in north east.
…, thanks for the suggested id. I have only one picture. Can you post the high resolution image of this?
Pl. check Osbeckia nepalensis Hook. as per keys and details herein.
I am not sure.
