New Delhi: Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Microsoft’s Indian-born CEO Satya Nadella, US President Donald Trump, newly re-elected Russian President Vladimir Putin and Chinese President Xi Jinping are among the contenders this year for Time magazine’s list of 100 most influential people who have made an impact on the contemporary world.
For more than a decade, the Time 100 annual list has featured some of the world’s most significant artists, leaders, scientists, activists and entrepreneurs. The list will be announced next month.
While the editors at Time will make the final judgement call on who makes the list, the publication has asked readers to vote online on who they believe are the most influential people of the year.
This year’s list of contenders include Modi, who has been featured regularly in the previous years among the probables for the most influential people by reputable news magazine.
