Belagavi district, Administrative district in Karnataka, India

The district stretches across 5,160 square kilometers of land with black soil, bordered by the Krishna and Bhima rivers in southern India.

Established in 1836, the region transformed through different administrative periods under Bombay Presidency, Bombay State, and Mysore State until 1973.

Religious centers like Shree Kshetra Mouneshwara Temple in Tinthani and Mata Manikeshwari Temple in Gurmitkal mark the spiritual geography of the district.

The district contains six taluks, including Shahapur, Wadgera, Hunasagi, Surapura, Yadgir, and Gurmitkal, encompassing 117 Gram Panchayats and 500 villages.

The district produces Malakheda Stone, a regional mineral resource, while maintaining its status as the primary dal production center of Karnataka.
