Sohawal State was a princely state of the Bagelkhand Agency of the British Raj.^[1] It was a relatively small Sanad state of about 552 km² with a population of 32,216 inhabitants in 1901. Its capital was at Sohawal, a small town — 2,108 inhabitants in 1901 — located in modern Satna district of Madhya Pradesh.

The state was divided in two sections separated by territory belonging to Kothi State and in its northern side it formed little enclaves within neighbouring Panna State.^[2]
