The makers had officially announced the fifth season during Prime Videos 2026 release slate event in Mumbai in March this year. However, the latest announcement means viewers may have to wait beyond 2026 to find out what happens next in Phulera.

The upcoming season will continue the story of Abhishek Tripathi, played by Jitendra Kumar, and the other residents of the village. Following the election results, Abhishek will have to deal with a difficult work environment under Phuleras new leadership. At the same time, he will continue preparing for his dream of pursuing an MBA. However, before moving ahead with his plans, Abhishek will have to settle some unfinished matters in the village. The new season will also show how Pradhan Ji deals with his defeat and how the lives of other characters change after the election.

Produced by The Viral Fever (TVF), Panchayat is directed by Deepak Kumar Mishra and written by Chandan Kumar. Apart from Jitendra Kumar, the series features Raghubir Yadav, Neena Gupta, Faisal Malik, Chandan Roy, Saanvika, Durgesh Kumar, Ashok Pathak and Sunita Rajwar in important roles.

The fourth season of Panchayat premiered on Prime Video on June 24, 2025. The previous seasons have followed Abhisheks journey from an engineering graduate who joins as a panchayat secretary in a village to becoming part of the everyday lives and politics of Phulera. (ANI)
