Etymology

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

History

Bemina was a nabal before it was developed by srinagar development authority .[3]

Flood plain

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]
