In 2020, Taherabad Rural District was created in Bumahen District, and Karasht Rural District and Pardis were separated from it in forming the Central District, which was divided into two rural districts, including the new Bagh-e Komesh Rural District.[5] The villages of Khosrowabad[6] and Saidabad-e Jajrud[7] were converted to cities in 2020 and 2021, respectively.
