Thank you sumukha :) Maybe this might be a nymph of the orange tailed marsh dart hence the difference between Green and blue? But have to agree with you it is an Orange-tailed Marsh Dart. Thanks again

I guess this must be it..:-) Your spottings abdomen is slightly blue and the one in Wiki link is greenish. That is due to the angle of the photo taken and also depends on the light available..:-)
