Thanks Garg ji. Another post of mine <https://groups.google.com/g/indiantreepix/c/zK3oej1R_Jg/m/R1SNYqzbCwAJ> using one of the photos from this post has been suggested the possibility of *Cirsium wallichii* DC. Will wait for validating of either *Cirsium verutum* (D.Don) Spreng. OR *Cirsium wallichii* DC. Regards. Dinesh
