    Mrs Bandaranayaka became prime minister without contesting a parliament seat in 1960.

    She came to parliament as a senator, not as an elected member of lower house.
    Thanks. Didn't know this

    Born into a wealthy family, she married the politician S.W.R.D. Bandaranaike in 1940 and began to interest herself in social welfare. After her husband, who became prime minister in 1956, was assassinated in 1959, she was induced by his Sri Lanka Freedom Party (SLFP) to become the party’s leader. The SLFP won a decisive victory at the general election in July 1960, and she became prime minister.

    Now this shit got little messed up. We weren't officially called Sri Lanka until 70s afaik. The bloody constitution came only in 78 right. So did we have two names back then. Must have been really awkward. Come to think of it where the f*** did we get the name Sri Lanka from.

    PS : WTF!!!!!
    So the country's name was based on pure crap of Hinduism. I feel bad now :( Thanks man

    No, 1978 constitution replaced the 1972 constitution. In 1972, CEYLON becomes Republic of Sri Lanka under that constitution.

    Since then, there are lots of arguments about the word "sri" which pronounce as ස්‍රී, and the letter ශ්‍රී should be written as "shri".
