ISLAMABAD: Dr Mahrang Baloch, a human rights activist and leader of Baloch Yakjehti Committee (BYC), has been honoured in Time magazine’s prestigious list of the 100 most influential people of 2024.
“TIME100 Next list was created to recognise that many of today’s most influential leaders are individuals who are not waiting long in life to make an impact,” the magazine said on Wednesday. The list includes leaders, innovators, advocates and artists.
Mahrang was selected for “advocating peacefully” for Baloch rights and leading the December 2023 march to Islamabad, where hundreds of women sought “justice for their husbands, sons, and brothers”.
The 31-year-old doctor took to her official Facebook account to share a post with a picture of magazine featuring herself and announce that she has made it to TIME Magazine’s “100 most influential people of 2024” list.
“I am deeply honored and delighted to be named among the top 100 emerging leaders of the world by TIME,” she wrote on a Facebook post after receiving the recognition.
