During British rule Isakhel became part of Mianwali District when the North-West Frontier Province was created in 1901.
According to the 1901 census, it contained the municipalities of Isa Khel (population, 7,630), the headquarters, and Kalabagh (5,824); and 43 villages. The land revenue and cesses in 1903-4 amounted to 1.6 lakhs. Lying on the west bank of the Indus, this tehsil is cut off from the rest of the District, and would seem to belong more properly to the North-West Frontier Province, but is separated even more completely from Bannu by the semicircular fringe of the Chichali and Maidani hills, which leave it open only on the river side. These hills drain into Isa Khel and make it fertile. Its extreme northern portion, known as the Bhangi Khel country, is a wild and rugged region, a continuation of the Khattak hills.
