Bhasha Singh (born June 20, 1971) is an Indian journalist, author, documentary filmmaker, and human rights advocate. With over twenty-five years of experience in mainstream and independent media—including roles with Outlook, Amar Ujala, Navbharat Times, and Nai Duniya—her reporting centers on Dalit rights, gender justice, manual scavenging, nuclear power hazards, agrarian distress, and minority civil liberties. She is widely known for her investigative book Adrishya Bharat (2012; published in English as Unseen: The Truth About India's Manual Scavengers in 2014), which documented the persistence of manual scavenging across Indian states and won significant recognition for highlighting caste-based labor exploitation. A 2017 People's Archive of Rural India (PARI) Fellow, she regularly contributes investigative reports and video commentary to digital news platforms and civil society forums.
