It’s not the first time a neta has been caught catching up on a few winks during an event or even crucial House proceedings.

The latest leader to feature in the ‘siesta list’ is Defence Minister Manohar Parrikar who earlier too has had his fair share of gaffes.

On Thursday, India celebrated its 68th Republic Day with colourful celebrations and parades. In the midst of hundreds of attentive spectators, a dozing Parrikar was spotted. A few pictures were clicked and shared online.

Next, of course, the vigilantes on Twitter took up the matter and trolled the minister.
