Banwari Lal (pronunciation) was a participant in the Kakori train robbery, carried out in August 1925 during the protests against British rule in India, who lived in Shahjahanpur, in the present-day state of Uttar Pradesh, India. He became an approver in the subsequent court case concerning that robbery.[1]

A member of the Hindustan Republican Association (later known as the Hindustan Socialist Republican Association), Banwari Lal was arrested at Raibareli and sent to Lucknow jail. He was sentenced for five years imprisonment.[1]
