After the census, the rural district was separated from the county and made a part of the Central District of the newly established Karun County. The villages of Astishan, Darvishabad, Gavmishabad, Gondamakar, Hadiabad, Khazami, Kut-e Abdollah, Kut-e Navaser, Kuy-e Montazeri, and Shariati-ye Yek were merged to form the county's capital city of Kut-e Abdollah.[3]
