Bhawna Jat (born 1 March 1996) is an Indian racewalker[1] from Rajasthan who participated in the 2020 Summer Olympics in Tokyo, finishing on 32nd position in 20 kilometres race walk.

She picked up racewalking at the age of 13 when her physical education teacher took her to a district-level athletics competition where slots were available only in the 3000 metres race walk; she finished second in the event.

[3] In the subsequent years, she would train only in the early hours of the day in order to avoid conservative villagers from seeing her in shorts.

[4] As her family was financially weak, she had to quit studies in college[5] and even compete barefoot during her early years.

In 2016, she landed a job with the Indian Railways as a ticket collector in Howrah, West Bengal.
