Panchayat is an Indian Hindi-language comedy drama television series created by The Viral Fever for Amazon Prime Video. Written by Chandan Kumar and directed by Deepak Kumar Mishra, the show features Jitendra Kumar, Raghubir Yadav, Neena Gupta, Sanvikaa, Chandan Roy, Durgesh Kumar, Ashok Pathak, Faisal Malik and Sunita Rajwar. It chronicles the life of an engineering graduate who joins as a panchayat secretary in a remote fictional village of Phulera in Uttar Pradesh due to lack of better job options.

The series was shot in a real panchayat office located in Mahodiya of Sehore district, Madhya Pradesh. Sehore district is 40 km from Bhopal, which is the capital city of Madhya Pradesh. The soundtrack and score of the series were composed by Anurag Saikia, whilst the cinematography and editing were performed by Amitabha Singh and Amit Kulkarni, respectively.

The series received mostly positive response from critics, with the performances of the leading actors, scripting, direction and major technical aspects being praised.
