Pindi Hazara Chana (born 24 January 1974) is a Tanzanian CCM politician and a special seat Member of Parliament since 2010. In January 2022 she began her cabinet career as the Minister of State (Policy, Parliamentary Affairs, Labour, Youth, Employment and Persons with Disabilities) in the Prime Minister's Office. Following a mini cabinet re-shuffle on 31st March 2022 Chana assumed the Ministry of Natural Resources & Tourism office. She exchanged positions with Mohamed Mchengerwa following another cabinet reshuffle as the new Minister of Culture, Arts and Sports in February 2023.

Again on 1 September 2023 in Samia Suluhu Hassan's third major cabinet reshuffle, she exchanged dockets with Damas Ndumbaro as the new Minister of Constitutional and Legal Affairs.
