Yes, appears so.
I have gone through the description in both Flora of China & Flora of Pakistan and satisfied about this id now.

Appears to be some Seseli species.
Elevation does not match with any of three and also image does not look like matching.

Fruit also matches as per FOP illustration
I feel leaf pattern does not match !

Attaching a collage of Oenanthe stolonifera (WATER PARSELY/ WATER DROPWORT)
Can this also be Oenanthe linearis as per FOI ?
I think looks different from image of Oenanthe linearis as per FOI
Looks different! Elevation, date, location ? Separate images instead of collage would have been better.
Thank you … Noted for action.

Pl. check comparative images at Apiaceae
Looks matching !
I find number of flowers in one umbellules is less, i.e., 11-13 only compared to net images and drawing from FoC.
I was having doubts about it, in view of recent id of your same species plant.
It is a highly variable plant as far as leaves are concerned as I found it has around 2500 observations in GBIF.

Habit : Wild
Osmorhiza sp. Osmorhiza aristata ?
case was discovered and is in RBG
Thank you … I shall check.
Pl. also check comparative images at Apiaceae
Pl. check Oenanthe hookeri C. B. Clarke and Oenanthe thomsonii C. B. Clarke
Yes! It is matching. Oenanthe javanica (Blume) DC.
It may be some other species from this genus.
I checked and feel that it is close to O. javanica compared to others listed in Nepal. Oenanthe
OK. Thanks.

Sending photos of a plant belonging to Apiceae family, highly aromatic, collected from Kedarnath region near Rambara 3200 m (Uttarakhand) on slopes amidst Balsams. Kindly help in identification of the same. The plant was collected in September, 2011
Looks more like an Araliaceae to me…..Any Aralia?? Not sure though!
Wait for more comments plz.
I think … is correct, I also think its not from Apiaceae
may be …
ginseng family resemblance…
did you get see the roots and photograph them?
No … I have no pictures of roots
May be some of the Panax or Acanthopanax.
It could be Aralia apioides of Araliaceae family
http://www.efloras.org/object_page.aspx?object_id=94520&flora_id=2
Looking at the size of the plant it looks like Apiaceae
I think it appears close to Oenanthe javanica as per images and details herein.
