Sana Bucha, born on 12 August 1980, is a Pakistani journalist and anchor.

After the English bulletin, Bucha hosted and produced the channel’s first ever English Show News Day.

Bucha covers topics such as Pakistani politics and foreign relations, South Asia and Middle East affairs and American involvement in the region.
