Sri Lanka emerged as an independent country in 1948. The leaders of the Sinhala community
sought to secure dominance over government by virtue of their majority. As a result, the
democratically elected government adopted a series of majoritarian measures to establish Sinhala
supremacy. In 1956, an Act was passed to recognise Sinhala as the only official language, thus
disregarding Tamil. The government followed preferential policies that favoured Sinhala applicants
for university positions and government jobs. A new constitution stipulated that the states shall
protect and foster Buddhism.
