Brahmani is a village in Bahadurpur block of Rae Bareli district, Uttar Pradesh, India.[2] It includes the important bazar and railway station of Fursatganj.[3] Fursatganj holds markets twice per week, on Thursdays and Sundays, where grain, vegetables, and cloth are the main items of trade.

Brahmani was historically part of the taluqdari estate belonging to the Rajas of Tiloi.[3] Its commercial importance grew with the opening of the railway station at Fursatganj.[3] At the turn of the 20th century, it also had a small school and a post office.[3] The population in 1901 was 1,690, including a large number of Ahirs and Banias.[3]
An aerodrome was constructed at Fursatganj in 1941–42.
The 1961 census recorded Brahmani (here spelled "Barhmani") as comprising 8 hamlets, with a total population of 1,928 people (980 male and 948 female), in 425 households and 423 physical houses.[4] The area of the village was given as 1,381 acres.[4] Average attendance of the Fursatganj biweekly market was about 3,000 people, and average of the annual Dussehra festival was about 9,000.[4]
