Prior to the formation of the rural district, its constituent villages were in Gowhar Kuh Rural District of the former Nukabad District of Khash County. In 2018, the district was separated from the county, elevated to the status of Taftan County, and divided into three districts, with the city of Nukabad as its only city and capital of the new county.[2]
