In 1948, after the formation of the constitution for the Union of Burma, Pakokku province was created with two districts - Pakokku District and Mindat District. They comprised a total of 11 townships - Pakokku (capital city), Mindat, Yesagyo, Pauk, Seikphyu, Myaing, Gangaw, Htilin, Saw, Kanpetlet, and Matupi.
On March 2nd, 1962 the military led by General Ne Win took control of Burma through a coup d'état, which put the government under the direct control of the military. A new constitution of the Socialist Republic of the Union of Burma was established on May 4, 1974.
Pakokku province was then broken up in a fashion, whereby Pakokku District was added to the Magway Division, and Mindat District was added to Chin State.[1][2][3][4][5]
Mindat District contains the townships of Mindat and Kanpetlet.
