A Sikh man, described on social media as "the most outraged man of India", has told BBC Hindi's Parul Agrawal about his life as the "face of street protests in Delhi".
The 43-year-old has been photographed protesting against all sorts of issues over the past few years. On Thursday, BuzzFeed India published a piece asking who the man was and what drove him.
Paramjeet Singh Pumma said he began agitating early in life.
Mr Pumma said he was introduced to the world of protests by his father. At the age of 16, he was already "a fierce protestor" and "leading the crowd" was his passion.
He dropped out of school at the age of 14, which limited his formal education to middle school.
But this has never deterred him from forming an opinion on any global or local issue and he has been expressing himself on almost everything around him.
"I am a common man and I get angry when a common man suffers," he says. More + photos...
