Abhisari—Hazara (country), the Abisares of the Greeks: it forms the north-western district of the Peshawar division. It was conquered by Arjuna (Mahabharata, Sabha-Parva, ch. 27; JASB. (1852) p. 234). But Dr. Stein identifies the kingdom of Abhisara of the lower and middle hills between the Vitasta (Jhelum) and Chandrabhaga (Chenab) including the state of Rajapuri (Rajauri) in Kasmira.
