Panchayat season 3 received a rating of 3.5 from News18 Showsha, as mentioned in their review. They stated, “Season 3 of Panchayat starts off strongly with the first three episodes. The creators skillfully blend the challenges faced by Jagmohan and his family with the grieving Prahlad. There is a particular scene between Jagmohan’s mother and Prahlad that will leave you teary-eyed. It is a raw, touching, and soul-stirring moment.” “While the show has several such impactful moments, it unfortunately gets overshadowed by a dramatic track involving the MLA and the village residents.
