The village comprises roughly 496 families and is governed by an elected head, known as the Sarpanch, with elections held every five years.[3] The 2011 Census data indicates that the village's population is 2,331.[3]
According to a journal, Hosagavi has a historical significance due to the presence of inscribed, hero, memorial stones and a temple dating back to the medieval and late medieval periods.[2]
According to a study conducted in 2010, Hosagavi experiences issues in the functioning of its Grama Sabhas. In these assemblies, there is a prevalent perception of casteism, partiality and nepotism in the selection of beneficiaries for various government schemes.[4] The elite and influential community members, often referred to as "big-wigs", are reported to dominate the decision making processes.[4]
