Mian Channu was considered a [[village]], and by 1938, it was considered a [[town]] of Multan region. Its limits were last extended in the year 1950. Since then, no extension has been made, and the development of the town from 1947 to 1961 remained slow. A [[municipal council]] was established in 1975, as it had grown into small [[Urban area\|urban centre]] by that time. After that, the town began developing, and major growth has been taking place, from 1972 to 1984. The trend of growth in this period has largely been along G.T Road, and in the northern direction.
