Power sharing in Sri Lanka

MAJORITARIANISM :-

A belief that the majority community should be able to rule a country in whichever way it by disregarding the wants, wishes, and needs of the minority.
Like in INDIA here majority of Hindus are found but INDIA did not follow this approach.

Communities in Sri Lanka: –

TAMILS-NATIVES – ‘SRILANKAN TAMILS’:-They are just 13 % of the total population

Rest whose forefathers had come from INDIA as plantation workers – ‘INDIAN-TAMILS’

SINHALESE – (BUDDHIST): – they are 74% of the population.

After Independence, 1948 they formed a majority. Beside them, TAMIL-HINDUS, TAMIL-MUSLIMS, and CHRISTIAN are 7% who are both Tamil and Sinhalese.
