Longwa is one of the biggest villages in the Mon district of Nagaland and is home to the Konyak Naga tribe.
The international border directly cuts through the house which belongs to the village chief Angh. Due to the demarcation, the sleeping quarters fall inside the Indian border, while the kitchen area falls in Myanmar, prompting the joke that he dines in India ad sleeps in Myanmar.
The Konyak tribe and the Burmese side share strong cultural and familial ties which have allowed both the governments to give dual citizenship to the residents of Longwa village.
Since being shared by the minister on Twitter, the video has amassed 236.3k views and several comments.
