They all decide democracy is the best means and decide to hold an election where the winner gets the money.
Each one tries to woo the villagers by being sympathetic and become a cheerful giver to all by offering various sops. Meanwhile, all the greedy and influential people of the village are busy trying to convince everybody why they are most deserving of the money they include the village Pandit, the landlord Rai bahadur tandav, the money lender Bhanjhi Babu, the village doctor, Vaidji and the school master Rajat who withdraws his name, who is by far the most respected. Then there is the postmaster's wife, who is sick and would rather use the money to cure her illness, and his beautiful daughter Seema, who has a crush on the village schoolmaster Rajat. There is a postman Haradhan who is actually Sir Jagdish Chandra who pretends to be lame and has secretly come to the village to know the right person to hand over the cheque, so he visits most of the possible candidates for verification of their honesty. The central character is the Post Master Nivaran who is given a mysterious cheque for ₹500,000 to be given to anyone who will use it to benefit the people of the village.
