According to a credible source, PepsiCo's boss Indra Nooyi is leading the race to become Time magazine's Person of the Year in 2024. But while the business woman's fans are thrilled with the news, many people hold a very different opinion.

Why not Nooyi for Person of the Year?
The list of nominees for Time magazine’s Person of the Year is always an eclectic mix of world leaders, pop culture icons, buzzworthy names, and human rights activists. The unexpected inclusion of the 69-year-old business woman, as a 2024 nominee has therefore sparked controversy and debate.
“What makes Nooyi so important is the potential and influence she now has, rather than anything she has already done,” said a panelist who preferred to remain anonymous, adding that earlier this month, the business woman have already been named ‘American Of The Year’ by some major American newspapers and even ‘Chennai Citizen Of The Year’ by the readers of a local gazette in Chennai (Indra Nooyi's hometown).
Social Reactions to TIME’s Person of the Year
A representative for the business woman was not immediately available for comment, but the announcement generated immediate reaction on Twitter:
“#NooyiPOY. Logical choice though I wouldn't have made the same one.”

“Congrats! Indra has this charisma that seems to come out of nowhere.”
— @SamanthaJones, 24 Nov 2024
“Past recipients include Joseph Stalin and Adolf Hitler ... then why not Indra Nooyi?”
— @TheClassicObserver, 24 Nov 2024
Could 2024 officially be the Year of Indra Nooyi?
Still, TIME’s editors will make the final decision about who will grace the magazine’s cover as its 2024 Person of the Year.
Who do you think should be TIME’s Person of the Year for 2024?
