<p></p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div>{{short description|North Indian village}}<br /> &#039;&#039;&#039;Bemni&#039;&#039;&#039; is an isolated village in the [[north Indian]] [[Himalayas]], situated in the state of [[Uttarakhand]], [[India]]. <br /> <br /> ==Details==<br /> Bemni sits beneath the peaks of [[Nanda Devi]] and [[Trisul|Trishul]] at an elevation of {{convert|9000|feet|meters}}. As of 2003, Bemni had no paved road into town. People had to walk uphill to reach the isolated village. There was no electricity or telecommunication infrastructure, and schooling stopped at grade five. This situation was addressed in recent years with the building of a road and new schools; and the installation of electricity and telecommunication towers.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite web |title=The Spirit of Change |url=https://pursuit.unimelb.edu.au/articles/the-spirit-of-change |website=pursuit.unimelb.edu.au}}&lt;/ref&gt; The major crops in the area are [[pulses]], barley, wheat, and hay. The fields in which these crops are grown are carved out of the mountainside, using cattle pulling wooden ploughs, and then harvested by hand with the use of [[sickle]]s.{{Citation needed|date=January 2021}}<br /> <br /> ==References==<br /> {{Reflist}}<br /> <br /> ==External links==<br /> * {{cite web |title=India: Living with Ghosts in the Himalayas |url=https://www.bbc.com/news/magazine-22905530 |website=bbc.com}}<br /> <br /> {{authority control}}<br /> {{coord missing|Uttarakhand}}<br /> <br /> {{DEFAULTSORT:Bemni}}<br /> [[Category:Villages in Uttarakhand]]<br /> <br /> <br /> {{india-stub}}</div>
