Answer:
Sri Lanka's population practices a variety of religions. As of the 2012 census 70.2% of Sri Lankans were Theravada Buddhists, 12.6% were Hindus, 9.7% were Muslims (mainly Sunni), 6.1% Roman Catholic, 1.3 other Christians and 0.05% others.[3][2] Buddhism is considered the state religion of Sri Lanka[4] and has been given special privileges in the Sri Lankan constitution such as government protection and fostering of Buddhist Dharma. However, the constitution also provides for freedom of religion and right to equality among all its citizens. In 2008 Sri Lanka was the third most religious country in the world according to a Gallup poll, with 99% of Sri Lankans saying religion is an important part of their daily life.[5]
