She has been a leading member of interviewing Anganwadi workers across Delhi NCR, expert committee on gender and education National Commission for Women, Rogi Kalyan Samiti Government of Delhi, and the Sexual Harassment Board of Delhi.

Witnessing a road accident and watching the apathy of the police and hospital staff first-hand led Bhayana to become a social activist.^[2][3][4] Bhayana has been closely working on Rape cases.^[5][6][7] Her protests were instrumental on the 2012 Delhi gang rape and murder case.^[8][9][10]

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic in India, many people from places far from Delhi were sent home with no treatment from the All India Institute of Medical Sciences, New Delhi. Bhayana stated, "Most of these patients have nowhere to stay or live... We found a group in which heart patients, cancer patients, and others with burn injuries were there. Many of them were not even able to walk. They are poor and also suffer from disabilities or problems." She organized for buses to take them home, and paid for the transportation out of pocket.^[11]
