New York, Dec 8 (IBNS): Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi has won the reader poll for TIME Person of the Year.

"In the final tally, Modi received more than 16% of the almost 5 million votes cast. Protesters who took to the streets in Ferguson, Mo., after the police shooting of an unarmed black teenager finished second with 9%. Hong Kong protest leader Joshua Wong, Nobel Peace Prize-winner Malala Yousafzai and the doctors and nurses treating Ebola rounded out the top five," the TIME said.

The choice of the TIME Person of the Year is made by TIME editors.

It will be announced Wednesday.
