Pramod Bhagat (born 4 June 1988) is an Indian professional Para-badminton player from Vaishali district, Bihar.[3][4][5][6][7] He is currently ranked world number 2 in para-badminton men's singles SL3,[8] and won a gold medal at the 2020 Summer Paralympics in Men's singles SL3.[9][5][10]

Bhagat is currently serving an 18-month competition ban set to expire in September 2025 for an anti-doping rule violation relating to three missed tests.[11]

Pramod was born on 4 June 1988 in Atabira, Bargarh district, Odisha.[12][3][13][10] He is one of six brothers and sisters. When he was five years old he developed polio, leading to a disability affecting his left leg. At the age of 13, he went to watch a badminton match and was fascinated with the game. For the next 2 years, he was deeply engulfed in the game with footwork, fitness, and fixture of the game. Pramod played his first tournament against normal category players when he was 15 years old. He was encouraged by spectators, which motivated him to move ahead in his badminton career.[14]
