As the increased hate content causes several health issues, it is necessary to mitigate it. Hate content mitigation may attain sustainable development goals of United Nations. Therefore, the objective of the article is to identify the possible policies to mitigate social media consequence-online hate content. In this regard, online and offline opinions from the Indian respondents are gathered through the questionnaire designed for the purpose.
