Kosrap Township (Uighur; Uyghur: كوسراپ يېزىسى, Kosrap Yëzisi;) is a historic township of Akto County in Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, China. It ceased to exist as a township and its territory was amalgamated to Qarlung Township on August 27, 2018.[1] All the residents of the former Kosrap Township migrated to Dayasdun (Chinese: 大亚斯墩) in Zepu County. Meanwhile, the Tong'an Township (Chinese: 桐安乡) was established in Dayasdun of Zepu County on August 27, 2018, its seat ia at Yengavati Village (Chinese: 英阿瓦提村).[2]

History

Since 1912, Kosrap had been the township of Puli County (present Taxkorgan). In 1950, Taxkorgan Tajik Autonomous County was established, and Kosrap was a township in the 2nd district of Taxkorgan. In September 1954, the Kizilsu Kyrgyz Autonomous Prefecture was established and Kosrap was transferred to Qarlung Township of Akto County from Taxkorgan. In 1961, the commune of Kosrap was re-established from Qarlung, and in 1965 it was merged into Qarlung. In 1981, Kosrap Commune was re-established. In October 1984, it was reorganized into a township.[3] Because the residential area of the township is located in the Altash Water Conservancy Project (Chinese: 阿尔塔什水利枢纽工程) reservoir area, its residents needed to be moved to the adjacent Dayasdun (Chinese: 大亚斯墩) in Zepu County. On August 27, 2018, Kosrap was merged into Qarlung,[1] while Tong'an Township (Chinese: 桐安乡) was formed in Dayasdun.[2]

Administrative divisions

Before its ceasing to exist as a separate division of township in 2018, Kosirap had 4 villages (as of 2017[4]) with 19 unincorporated villages[5] under its jurisdiction.
