Mullah Ghani Baradar finds space in Time Magazine’s 100 most influential people
Meanwhile, Prime Minister Narendra Modi, West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee and Adar Poonawalla of Serum Institute of India are included in the list released by Time magazine.

Time magazine 2021 has released its list of the 100 most influential people in the world. It also includes a name that has surprised everyone. Mullah Abdul Ghani Baradar, the deputy prime minister in the new Taliban government and top figure in the Doha talks, has been included in Time magazine’s list of the 100 most influential people. Mullah Baradar led the Taliban in talks with the US during the peace deal.
Baradar was the key face of the Taliban when US Special Representative for Afghan Reconciliation Zalmay Khalilzad officially signed the peace deal in Doha in February 2020. Time magazine introduced Baradar as a quiet, mysterious person who rarely makes public statements or interviews. It said Mullah Baradar took all major decisions, including pardoning members of the former regime, preventing bloodshed when the Taliban entered Kabul, and contacts and visits with neighboring China and Pakistan.
Baradar was arrested in Pakistan by the country’s security forces in 2010 and released in 2018, after the US stepped up efforts to leave Afghanistan. However, despite being a co-founder of the Taliban and playing a top role in negotiations with the US, it is believed that Baradar has been given a relatively low position in the caretaker government.
However, there were reports of the death of Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan’s deputy PM after the fight over seat of power in Afghanistan. Taliban government then put out an audio message confirming he was alive and not injured. In the clip, Baradar said that there had been news about his death but he is still alive and is safe wherever he is.

He thanked the part chief Mayawati, for making him the BSP Parliamentary party leader. Ali said if raising his voice against injustice was a crime, he was ready to face punishment.
Talking to the media in a press conference, Ali denied indulging in anti party activities and said he always walked the BSP’s line. On Friday Ali sided with the opposition and slammed the expulsion of Trinamool Congress (TMC) leader Mahua Moitra as a Lok Sabha MP. He slammed the BJP led central government, saying its brute majority in the Lower House did not mean it could throttle the opposition.
The BSP is not a member of the rulling BJP-led NDA or the Opposition INDIA bloc. The BSP on Saturday suspended its MP Danish Ali for allegedly indulging in anti party activities. Ali has been representing the Amroha Lok Sabha constituency in Uttar Pradesh since 2019.
In a statement issued by the BSP national general secretary Satish Chandra Misra, Ali had been warned by the party many times in the past not to indulge in anti party activities. The BSP said Ali had been working with HD Deve Gowda of the Janata Dal (secular) party. At that time, both the BSP and JD(S) were contesting together in the Karnataka state election. After the Karnataka election Ali was given a ticket from Amroha and asked to contest from there due to Devegowda’s insistence. Deve Gowda had said the party had decided to suspend Ali with immediate effect.
