Pew Research Center — Government Restrictions Index (GRI) and Social Hostilities Index (SHI), Sri Lanka country profile

tlte-cite:pew-gri-shi-srilanka

Editorial gloss

Pew's GRI (state-imposed restrictions) and SHI (non-state hostilities) place Sri Lanka in the 'High' band on both indices across multiple annual cycles. Distinct from V-Dem in methodology — Pew is event-coded from open-source reporting rather than expert-coded — so independent triangulation. Pair with V-Dem for any quantitative religion-freedom claim.
