Etymology[edit]

Bemina was originally called "Abhimanyupur".^[3]^[4]

History[edit]

Bemina was founded by a local king of Kashmir, Abhimanyu.^[3]

Flood Plain[edit]

Bemina was settled on the local floodplains of adjoining rivers. Unplanned and Haphazard construction led to usurpation of flood plains. A direct consequence of this is that it is one of the most flood prone areas in the Srinagar city.^[5]
