Min Linka (Burmese: မင်း လင်္ကာ, pronounced [mɪ́ɴ lìɴgà]) was governor of Pegu (Bago) from 1348 to c. 1353. Son of King Saw Zein of Martaban, the prince was appointed governor by his half-brother King Binnya U. But he did not help his brother during the 1351–52 invasion of the kingdom by Lan Na. He was defeated by his brother's forces after they had defeated the invasion. Linka was brought back to Martaban, and executed there.
