(ii) The Sri Lankan Government formulated a policy in which only Sinhala applicants were preferred for job in university and other Government jobs.

(iii) The new constitution of Sri Lanka declared that the Buddhism would be promoted by the state.

(IV) Thus, all these government measures coming after one another, gradually increased the feeling of alienation.
