How did the new constitution support Buddhism in Sri Lanka |
|
Answer» Freedom of religion in Sri LANKA is a protected right under Chapter II, Article 9 of the constitution of Sri Lanka. This applies to all religions, though Buddhism is given primary protection as the state religion. Buddhism was given the foremost place by President J. R. Jayawardene in 1978, though Sri Lanka is regarded by its SUPREME Court as being a secular country. Limitations on proselytism were OUTLINED by the Supreme Court of Sri Lanka in 2018, with the ruling against a Catholic organisation stating that the provision of economic and financial support to VULNERABLE individuals while promulgating a faith was an infringement upon those individuals' right to freedom of religion.
