Bagol

Bagol Thikana, situated in the historic region of Udaipur, was a prominent estate ruled by the Dodiya clan of Rajputs, who originally migrated from the Sardhar region of Gujarat to serve the rulers of Mewar State. Renowned for their exceptional military prowess and unwavering loyalty, the Dodiya Rajputs of Bagol established themselves as key defenders of the Mewar throne, famously participating in monumental conflicts such as the Battle of Haldighati. The fiefdom of Bagol was granted to the family as a jagir (noble estate) in recognition of their valiant battlefield sacrifices and dedicated service to the Maharanas of Udaipur. Over the centuries, the Thikana maintained its administrative and military significance under the Mewar crown until the integration of princely states into democratic India post-independence in 1948.
