Detailed Solution

Sri Lanka adopted Buddhism as its official religion. It is a majoritarian policy as the country has a diverse population. The main social groups are Sinhala speakers (74%) and Tamil speakers (18%). Sinhala speakers are mainly Buddhists, but most Tamils ​​are Hindus or Muslims. About 7 per cent of Christians are both Tamils ​​and Sinhalese. The Constitution and other laws require that Buddhism be "prime" in the country's religious beliefs and protect "Buddhism" while respecting the rights of the religious minority. It was a policy initiated by the then Sinhala-dominated government.
