Forty-year-old Vishnu Gupta, originally from Etah, UP, moved to Delhi at a young age. Influenced by militant Hindu nationalism, he joined the Shiv Sena's youth wing as a student. In 2008, Gupta became a member of the Bajrang Dal.

According to a report by the Indian Express, Gupta, president of the National Hindu Army, founded the Hindu Sena in 2011 with a few others. He now claims the organization has "lakhs of members" and units in "almost all parts of India."
