In October 2010, the former Taleqan District was separated from Savojbolagh County, Tehran province, in the establishment of Taleqan County, which was divided into two districts of two rural districts each, with Taleqan as its capital and only city.

At the latest census in 2016, the rural district's population was 3,146 people in 1,183 households, by which time the county had become a part of the newly established Alborz province. The most populous of its 16 villages was Vashteh, with 593 inhabitants.
