Hagalavadi(ಹಾಗಲವಾಡಿ)(हागलवाडि) is a town in Tumkur District[1] of Karnataka, Hagalavadi has the longest history in the Mysore kingdom.The name Hagalavadi came from this history itself. Hagalavadi (Agalavadi) Agala means wide, vadi means "Group" or, "Group of People" living in an area. The name Hagalavadi gradually shifted from Agalavadi (agalavada samsthana) in its history
The founder of this dynasty, Erimada Nayaka succeeded by Sali Nayaka (late 15th century) who largely expanded the territory. Hagalavadi is also headquarter to the palegar lines, the town Chikkanayakanahalli was founded by Erimada Nayaka and named after his brother as Chikkanayaka.

Hagalavadi Dynasty's Chiefs Edit
The Hagalvadi chiefs ruled for about 300 years from 1478 to 1776. The founder of the dynasty, Erimada Nayaka, was succeeded by Sali Nayaka (1508-1544) who largely expanded the territory. Inscription Ck 38 dated 1696 relates to them.

Sali Nayaka, who captured Kandikere and Settikere

and other places, assisted the Penukonda army with a force, on condition of being confirmed in his conquests and when that army was defeated, escaped to his own capital with such plunder as he could secure. Chiknayakanahalli was founded and named after his brother, and Honnavalli, Turuvekere and Nonavinakere were added to the possessions. It was on the completion of these enterprises that he is said to have taken the name of Sali Nayaka from the idea that his conquests extended in a ‘Salu’ or line. His grandson, Mudiyappa Nayaka I , also considerably extended the territory. Mudiyappa Nayaka II, who was the ninth in the line, had been hailed as a Rajarishi for his benign rule; later, he gave up the throne and engaged himself in spiritual pursuits. His son, Mudduveerappa Nayaka (1740-1753), successfully resisted the onslaughts of Salabat Jung and Dilwar Khan and was called ‘Jung Bahadur’. Channabasappa Nayaka, the twelfth ruler in the line, was imprisoned by Haidar Ali at Srirangapattana. The Nayaka died in prison the territory was annexed by Haidar Ali. According to M. S. Puttanna (‘Hagalavadi Palayagararu’ 1931), theHagalvadi State had once covered more than three – fourths of the present district of Tumkur.So many Religious monasteries originated here during 15th to 17th centuries AD, among them Mudduveeraswamy and Muddiyappa Nayakas are still famous and their name is still in every local people's mouths. Hagalavadi has the longest history on TCB Road and its territory was wider, the chiefs of this dynasty built many forts, temples and many Monasteries, the old monuments are still exist in the town today.

In 1638 A.D., under the command of Ranadulla Khan, the Bijapur army invaded the northern portions of this district. Along with the southern principalities of Doddaballapur, Bangalore, Kolar and Hoskote, Sira was placed under the charge of Shahji and for quite some time Malik Rihan was the governor of Sira. With the capture of Bijapur in 1686 A.D., Aurangazeb established tlie Moghul supremacy in this region. Sira was made the capital of a new province consisting of the seven paraganas of Sira, Basavapattana, Budihal, Doddaballapur, Hoskote, Kolar and Penukonda and was placed under the charge of a Subedar or Faujdar. Kashim Khan was the first Subedar and Dilawar Khan (1724-56) the last. During this period Sira and its neighbourhood assumed considerable importance as a seat of administration and received royal patronage. Sheikh Farid for instance built a big mosque. Rustum Jung, who earned for himself the title of Bahadur built a fort and a petta.

During the same period parts of this district came to be annexed by the Wodeyars of Mysore in a phased manner as it were. In 1650 A.D., Kanthirava Narasaraja Wodeyar (1638-59) made a beginning by acquiring Hebbur in Tumakuru taluk from immadi Kempe Gowda. By 1673 A.D., the kingdom of Mysore had been extended as far as Chiknayakanhalli in the north. This was followed by the conquests of Chikka-Devaraja Wodear (1673-17). He is said to have captured Jadakanadurga (which he named after himself as Chikka Devarayana Durga), Maddagiri, Midigeshi, Bijjavara, Channarayadurga and several other places, “By the end of his reign except for Sira and its immediate  surroundings, rest of the Tumakuru district formed part of Mysore. These areas too were taken during the period of Haidar Ali on his conquest of Sira in 1761 and the annexation of Hagalavadi in 1776. With the fall of Tipu Sultan in 1799, this territory too passed into the hands of the British who restored it to the Wodeyars of Mysore, from which date the history of the district coincides with the history of the erstwhile Mysore State. During the reign of Krishnaraja Wodeyar-III (1811-31), the State consisted of six Faujdaris and the present Tumakuru district stood included in the Maddagiri i.e., Madhugiri, ,,’Faujdari.: In 1834, these were reconstituted into four divisions and Tumakuru became the headquarters of Chitradurga division which encompassed the areas now included in these two districts.
