I posted an article a few months ago. It was a small list of few of the most cringeworthy terms I come across daily, both online and in real life. It's not a popular post and I'm not marketing it either. However, I was surprised (actually, not) to see someone leave a hateful comment on this post a few months later.

Why Uniform Civil Code is Good for Indian Muslims
This is a repost of my original Facebook post with some additional remarks. With all the hoopla surrounding Uniform Civil Code (or UCC) and the way it'd affect every Indian, you'd be compelled to take a side for or against it.
