Halagali is a small village in Mudhol taluk, Bagalkot district.

The first uprising against the British was evidenced at Halagali. The prince of Mudhol, Ghorpade had accepted British overlordship but the Bedas (hunters), a marshal community, were seething with dissatisfaction under the new dispensation. The British proclaimed the Disarming Act of 1857 whereby men possessing firearms had to register them and secure a license before November 10, 1857. Babaji Nimbalkar, a soldier was thrown out of his job from Satara Court, had advised these people not to loose their hereditary right to own arms.
