- Sinhala was recognised as the only official language in Sri Lanka. Tamil language was not given due importance.
- The Sri Lankan Government formulated a policy in which only Sinhala applicants were preferred for job in university and other Government jobs.
- The new constitution of Sri Lanka declared that the Buddhism would be promoted by the state.
- Thus, all these government measures coming after one another, gradually increased the feeling of alienation.
