The Times 100 most influential people’s list of 2022 has been out. Among them, some of the noted names are Industrialist Gautam Adani, Supreme Court lawyer Karuna Nundy and Kashmiri rights activist Khurram Parvez. Moreover, the list also includes NRI businessman Bela Bajaria, who is currently the head of Global TV at Netflix.
Gautam Adani in the last month edged past Warren Buffet to become the 5th richest man in the world and is the owner of multiple top brands across sectors. Karuna Nundy, a Supreme Court lawyer, known for several landmark cases vis-a-vis gender and women’s rights, was described by TIME as “not just a lawyer but also a public activist who ably and bravely uses her voice both inside and outside the courtroom to bring about change.”
The profile for Khurram Parvez, Chairperson of the Asian Federation against Involuntary Disappearances, was authored by journalist Rana Ayyub. “Startled and most deeply honoured to be on #ime100, with and for the multitudes of people, the court systems, the lawyers, the movements, and the rights I represent. Thank you to each of you who has offered support along the way, you know who you are (sic),” Nundy tweeted as the news broke late on Monday evening.
“Bajaria is helping create the future of television. The shows she has shepherded have become global phenomena,” the TIME profile of Bajaria said.
