Bhabesh Chandra Nandi (Bengali: ভবেশচন্দ্র নন্দি, Urdu: بھویش چندر نندی) was a representative of East Pakistan in the Constituent Assembly of Pakistan.

In 1950, Nandi was elected to the East Bengal Legislative Assembly on a Pakistan National Congress ticket from the East Dacca constituency, after the incumbent MLA Ganendra Chandra Bhattacharjee (from Congress) migrated to India. He was a member[lower-alpha 1] of the Constituent Assembly of Pakistan.[2]
