Abstract: The present study aimed to study the impact of leisure activity on the sleeping habits of the paramedical college - going tribal and non - tribal students of Tripura. Students of both genders took part. There are 298 (34.81%) female students and 225 (26.29%) male non - tribal pupils overall. Thus, a higher proportion of female students took part in the research. There were 213 (24.88%) female ethnic residents and 120 (14.02%) male ethnic people in total.856 pupils took part in all. Among the college students who are the subject of this inquiry, accessing the internet is their preferred pastime. The students preferred to play games, watch movies, listen to music, chatting with friends and family as their leisure activities using the internet. After a tiring day, they found the night time only to spend leisure time which adversely affects their sleeping pattern, especially the duration. The study shows poor sleeping quality among all participating students. Not a single student found with good sleep quality. These findings indicate the probable threat to the physical and mental health status of the students in the future. This addiction to the internet with poor sleep quality might affect their academic interest in the coming days.
