Diptera, Nematocera, Chronomidae. Although we should not make suggestions for only the family, in this case, I think it is valuable, since it is probably not possible to get down to genus or species level. You may know an Indian Diptera expert to help more. Same one, but no ID, unfortunately. http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_19oxeHIxSOU/SL91qjReVUI/AAAAAAAAANc/N9ys4Zwxo1Y/s1600-h/Non-biting+Midge+01+-+grasslords.jpg http://grasslords.blogspot.ch/2008/09/non-biting-midge-chironomidae.html
