=>> An island country in South Asia is known for is linguistic, ethnic diversity.
=>> The country is home to Sinhalese who are in majority and Tamils, and other ethnic groups which are in minority.
=>> 74% of its population speak Sinhalese and 18% Tamil.
=>> There is also a sub division within Tamils, 13 % are Sri Lanka Tamils.
=>> Then there are Indian Tamils, whose ancestors worked as plantation workers under colonial administration
=>> Tamils in Sri Lanka are the natives of the island country and constitute the minority group there, dominating northern and eastern part of the country.
=>> The Sinhala community has always sought to impose its will and dominance over the country since they are in majority.
=>> The Tamils there, have been deprived of their basic civil political rights and have been the victims of discrimination.
=>> The Sri Lankan constitution did not give recognition to the minority group and instead recognised Sinhala as the official language.
State policies also sought to give preference to the Sinhala community in terms of jobs and educational institutions.
=>> Tamil dominated regions have also been deprived of autonomy.
=>> The government there has not provided for power sharing arrangements, and has pursued a policy of Majoritarianism.
=>> Thus, it is the policy of majoritarianism deteriorated relations between the two communities leading to ethnic conflict.. Lack of power sharing between the two groups and lack of adequate representation and accommodation of the interests of the Tamils led to civil war.
