Editorial gloss

V-Dem's expert-coded freedom-of-religion variable (v2clrelig) provides an annual time-series score for Sri Lanka against the question 'Is there freedom of religion?' from 1900 to present. The Sri Lanka series shows persistent restriction relative to comparator multi-religious states (India, Indonesia, Nepal, Thailand) and shows step-changes at 1956, 1972, 1983, 2009 and post-2019. Cite for any longitudinal/quantitative claim — TLTE never aggregates a new index, V-Dem already provides one.
