Answer» \tMeasures taken in majoritarianism gradually increased the feeling of alienation among Sri Lankan Tamils.\tThey felt that the constitution and government policies denied them equal political rights, discriminated against them in getting jobs and other opportunities and ignored their interests.\tAs a result, the relations between Sinhalas and Tamil communities got strained over time.\tThe Sri Lankan Tamils launched parties and struggles for the recognition of Tamil as an official language, regional autonomy and equality of opportunities in getting education and jobs.\tBy the 1980s, several political organisations were formed demanding an independent Tamil Elam (state) in northern and eastern parts of Sri Lanka.\tThe distrust between the two communities turned into widespread conflict. It soon turned into a civil war. As a result, thousands of people of both the communities were killed. Thanks sanket ??
