Bilagi, Town panchayat in Bagalkot district, Karnataka, India.
Bilagi is a small administrative town in Karnataka surrounded by agricultural fields and rural settlements. The center contains administrative buildings while farmland and villages characterize the broader area.
The Arettina Bavi structure with inscriptions from the 18th century documents early settlement and was built by Visajipanta. The Kannada and Persian scripts suggest cultural connections from that period.
The Shri Siddeshwara temple south of the center hosts religious ceremonies and traditional rituals that shape the spiritual life of the community. Visitors can observe daily prayer practices and seasonal festivals that reflect the local faith and customs.
The town is easily accessible via National Highway 52 with regular bus connections to nearby cities. The best time to visit is during dry months when farming activity is visible and roads are in good condition.
The local economy centers almost entirely on sugarcane cultivation in surrounding fields, which drives the daily work of farmers. This specialization makes the area an important part of the region's sugar production.
