'''Bhimber Gali''' is a village in the [[Poonch district, India|Poonch district]] of [[Jammu and Kashmir (union territory)|Jammu and Kashmir]], [[India]]. It is often called BG locally as an abbreviated form of Bhimber Gali. It is named after a mountain pass "Bhimber Gali" on the mountain ridge separating the [[Poonch River]] and the [[Rajouri Tawi River|Rajouri Tawi]] basins.  Bhimber Gali is the point at which four roads meet, one from Hamirpur Balakote, second from [[Rajouri]] via Manjakote, third from [[Mendhar Tehsil]] and fourth from [[Poonch district, India|Poonch]] Via [[Surankote]]. This area borders [[Azad Kashmir|Pakistan administered Kashmir]] and thus the surrounding areas often remain in news for cross [[Line of Control|LoC]] ceasefire violations.
