<!--On her husband's assassination, Bandaranaike took over the leadership of his [[Sri Lanka Freedom Party]], which he had formed and led to election victory in [[1956]], and kept it for ''40'' years until her death. She became prime minister on [[July 21]], [[1960]] and ruled her country on and off throughout the 1960s and 1970s until she was crushingly defeated in a general election in [[1977]]. In [[1980]], she was expelled from parliament for abuse of power, and banned from public office for seven years. |

A staunch [[socialist]], Bandaranaike continued her husband's policies of nationalizing key sectors of the economy, such as banking and insurance. Unfortunately, she was on a roller-coaster ride from the moment she took office and within a year of her [[1960]] election victory she declared a ''state of emergency''. This followed a [[civil disobedience]] campaign by part of the country's minority [[Tamil people|Tamil]] population who were outraged by her decision to drop [[English language|English]] as an official language and her order to conduct all government business in [[Sinhala]], the language of the majority [[Sinhalese]]. This they considered a highly discriminatory act and an attempt to deny Tamils access to all official posts and the law. This lead to an increase in Tamil militancy which escalated under succeeding administrations. |

Further problems arose with the President's state takeover of foreign businesses, particularly the petroleum companies, which upset the [[United States|Americans]] and the [[British Empire|British]], who imposed an aid [[embargo]] on [[Sri Lanka]]. As a result, Bandaranaike moved her country closer to [[China]] and the [[Soviet Union]] and championed a policy of nonalignment. At home, she crushed an attempted military coup in [[1962]]. In [[1964]], she entered into a historic coalition with the [[Lanka Sama Samaja Party]] (LSSP). At the end of that year, she was defeated on a confidence vote, losing the general election that followed. Six years later she bounced back, her [[United Front (Sri Lanka)|United Front]] winning a substantial majority in the [[1970]] elections. |

Her second term saw a new Constitution introduced, which ended the country's status as a [[Commonwealth realm]]. [[Ceylon]] was renamed [[Sri Lanka]] and declared a republic. But after just 16 months in power, a left-wing youth uprising almost toppled her government: Sri Lanka's small ceremonial army could not deal with the insurgency. She was saved by her skillful foreign policy when the country's non-aligned friends rushed to her help. In a rare move, both [[India]] and [[Pakistan]] sent troops to [[Colombo]] to aid Bandaranaike in crushing the insurgency. In those tough political years, she turned herself into a formidable leader. ''"She was the only man in her cabinet"'', one of her officials commented during the height of the insurgency. |

The [[1973]] oil crisis had a traumatic effect on the [[Sri Lanka|Sri Lankan]] economy; the government had no access to Western aid and her socialist policies stifled economic activity. Rationing had to be imposed. Bandaranaike became more and more intolerant of criticism and forced the shutdown of the Independent newspaper group, whose publications were her fiercest critics. Earlier she had nationalized the country's largest newspaper, ''Lake House'', which has remained the government's official mouthpiece. |
