Bueng Na Rang (Thai: บึงนาราง) is a district (amphoe) in the western part of Phichit Province, northern Thailand.

Geography

Neighboring districts are (from the north clockwise) Pho Prathap Chang, Taphan Hin and Pho Thale of Phichit Province, Banphot Phisai of Nakhon Sawan Province and Bueng Samakkhi of Kamphaeng Phet Province.

History

The minor district was established on 15 July 1996 by splitting off five tambon from Pho Thale District.[1]

Following a decision of the Thai government on 15 May 2007, all 81 minor districts were upgraded to full districts.[2] With publication in the Royal Gazette on 24 August the upgrade became official .[3]

Administration

The district is divided into five sub-districts (tambon), which are further subdivided into 50 villages (muban). There are no municipal (thesaban) areas, and five tambon administrative organizations (TAO).
