What is Panchayat about?
An engineering graduate reluctantly takes a job as secretary of a village council in rural Uttar Pradesh, trading city ambitions for power cuts, petty feuds and stubbornly lovable locals. Across four seasons, Phulera's gentle absurdities become a wry education in how India actually works.
