this plant is photographed in hamirpur H.P. , growing wild, agave or yucca, not sure, Which Species? Any Idea pls
Pl. check comparative images and keys at Agave

spines along the edges  are visible (in a small section of the picture only) so its Agave. yucca is spineless. so next time pay attention to leaf thickness, end pint, and edges

Is it Agave americana?

Leaf thickness and width rules it out I think, ...
I would like to go with Agave americana L. as per comparative images at Agave and keys herein.

the leaf is not robust enough. look at these
the following url shows pictures with cross sections of the leaves. I call that ROBUST ... thick... leaves
===
the presented plant is agave thin leaved. thin enough to flop over. not Agave Americana. sorry to bring a negative opinion
Thanks, ..., There are lot of mis-identification in these species. We have to follow keys at Agave

Which Agavaceae sp.??

Furcrea sp, may be foetida.  

Thank you ... ! Furcraea foetida (L.) Haw.
To me appears close to Agave angustifolia Haw. as per comparative images and keys at Furcraea
As prickles appears to be longer, it should be Agave americana L. as per keys and comparative images at Agave
