On March 17, World Sleep Day is celebrated to raise awareness about the importance of getting enough restful sleep and to bring attention to the challenges posed by sleep disorders. On the occasion, a Nagaland minister, Temjen Imna Along, used Twitter to share a humorous post to commemorate the occasion.

Imna Along, who is known on social media platforms for his clever commentary on the prejudice faced by individuals from North-Eastern states in India, Imna Along shared a post with a picture of himself at an event on Twitter. “Happy World Sleep Day! Let us take a moment to appreciate people with small eyes, who remind us that being awake 24/7 isn’t always a choice!” he wrote in the sassy post.

In the photograph, he shared, Along is seen sitting in a room surrounded by multiple people who appear to be sleeping on their chairs. It seems that the image is meant to highlight the issue of lengthy seminars and discussions where attendees struggle to stay focused and eventually doze off during the session.

The interesting picture and the caption brought a lot of likes and comments to the tweet.

Along regularly updates his admirers and followers on his personal life, his own advice, and the grandeur of his state.
