Rig-e Kaput (Persian: ريگ كپوت) is a village in Bampur-e Sharqi Rural District of the Central District of Bampur County, Sistan and Baluchestan province, Iran.
At the time of the 2006 National Census, the village's population was 2,389 in 406 households, when it was in the former Bampur District of Iranshahr County.[2] The following census in 2011 counted 3,423 people in 692 households.[3] The 2016 census measured the population of the village as 3,491 people in 834 households. It was the most populous village in its rural district.[4]
In August 2017, the district was separated from the county in the establishment of Bampur County, which was divided into two districts of two rural districts each, with the city of Bampur as its capital. The rural district was transferred to the new Central District.[5]
