History
Historically, Bhinai was an Istimrari estate under the Rathore dynasty's Jodha clan. The estate was founded by Rao Agar Sen, the younger son of Rao Chandrasen of Marwar. In 1783, the title of Raja was conferred upon the head of the Bhinai house by the then Chief of Jodhpur as a reward for military service.[2][3]
