It has been the [[headquarters]] of the [[Mian Channu Tehsil]] of [[Khanewal District]] since 1985,<ref name=khanewal>{{cite web|url=http://www.khanewalpolice.gov.pk/pages/khanewal.htm |title=Khanewal History includes Mian Channu|website= Government of Khanewal website|archive-url=https://archive.today/20090521102840/http://www.khanewalpolice.gov.pk/pages/khanewal.htm |archive-date=2009-05-21|access-date=16 May 2022}}</ref> and is administratively subdivided into three [[Union Councils of Pakistan|Union councils]].<ref name=nrb>{{cite web|url=http://www.nrb.gov.pk/lg_election/union.asp?district=16&dn=Khanewal|title=Tehsils & Unions in the District of Khanewal|website=National Reconstruction Bureau, Government of Pakistan website |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110807200017/http://www.nrb.gov.pk/lg_election/union.asp?district=16&dn=Khanewal |archive-date=7 August 2011|access-date=16 May 2022}}</ref>
For more than a century, Mian Channu was part of [[Multan District]]. With the raising of status of Mian Channu to a tehsil headquarters, and the creation of Khanewal District on 1 July 1985, Mian Channu Tehsil became a part of Khanewal District.<ref name=khanewal/>
An accidentally fired [[BrahMos]] missile from India landed in Mian Channu in 2022, resulting in the [[2022 India–Pakistan missile incident]].
