<br />
==Etymology==<br />
Bemina was originally called "Abhimanyupur".<ref name="Abhi">{{Cite book |last=Raina |first=Mohini Qasba |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=Bb-QBQAAQBAJ&pg=PA264 |title=Kashur The Kashmiri Speaking People |date=2014-11-13 |publisher=Partridge Publishing Singapore |isbn=978-1-4828-9945-0 |language=en}}</ref><ref>{{Cite book |last=Rabbani |first=G.

<br />
==History==<br />
Bemina was a nabal before it was developed by srinagar development <br />
authority .<ref name="Abhi"/><br />
<br />
==Flood plain==<br />
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.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://freepresskashmir.news/2017/10/04/how-convergence-of-bemina-from-flood-basin-to-residential-area-endangered-srinagar/|title = How conversion of Bemina from flood basin to residential area endangered Srinagar &#124; Free Press Kashmir|date = 4 October 2017}}</ref><br />
