As we know, the Indian Himalaya region (IHR) is the storehouse of many discovered and undiscovered novel plant species. To explore this repository, a plant exploration trip was planned far in the remote alpine zone (Royal Sar) of Overa-Aru wildlife sanctuary, Kashmir Himalaya. Along the trails of plant specimen collection, a fascinating population of plant species from genus Swertia struck my sight and became limelight to satisfy my curiosity about new plant species discovery.
