Be it the rising fuel or food prices, pressure of high cut-off, obscenity on TV channels, issue of reservation or terrorism, ban on turban in France, Shootout in Wisconsin Temple in the US, Paramjit Pamma keep following the news and is always ready to shout his heart out for almost any cause.

Pamma became a fierce protestor at the age of 16. He told BBC news that his father introduced him to the world of protests. In 1997, he launched the National Akali Dal group to "raise a voice on behalf of the ordinary citizen" which "highlights the wrongdoings of all political parties".

This "omnipresent Sikh rage guy," who runs a small tailoring accessories shop in Sadar Bazar, which is one of the oldest markets in Delhi, has hogged limelight ever since he was regarded as the “most outraged man in the history of mankind” by BuzzFeed.

Pamma’s wife Simran tries to calm him down at home with medicines and by providing him a controlled diet. She said, "He has already had two heart surgeries. His BP is high.”

She further added that, "He says even if the issue does not concern us, it might affect our kids tomorrow." The couple have two daughters and a son - nine-year-old Jasnehar, eight-year-old Tejus and Chandpreet who is 7.

Pamma, who idolizes Bhagat Singh, have also taken inspiration from Welsh poet Dylan Thomas as he keeps on urging, "rage, rage against the dying of the light; do not go gentle into that good night". (Image: Raveendran/Getty)
