Due to reservation system provided by the Government for the post of Panchayat President, Rajendra Prasad is elected as the President of Gram panchayat by the village people under the head of a landlord. The landlord later reveals his intention of selecting Rajendra Prasad as president as he is innocent and can be made puppet in his hands. Rajendra Prasad wants to reform his village but is left helpless as he lacks courage. Later one day he feels ashamed of himself for being so powerless and unable to stop the crimes committed by the Landlord. He revolts back which results in his arrest with false accusations and is killed by the Landlord's men after he returns from the police station. The police take the Landlord's side and close the case reporting that the person killed was someone other than Rajendra Prasad.
