Ambedkar Makkal Iyakkam[1] (Ambedkar People Movement) is a political movement in the Indian state of Tamil Nadu working for the upliftment of Dalits. The founder of AMI was Dr. V. Balasundaram. Dr. Vai. Balasundaram formed 'Ambedkar People Movement' in 1977 in a ceremony held at Rajaji Hall, Chennai, in the esteemed presence of Mr. Prabhudas Patwari, Hon’ble then Governor of Tamil Nadu. Ambedkar Makkal Iyakkam is constantly fighting for social welfare, equality, human rights, women's welfare, Panchami Land recovery and educational upliftment.

After the demise of Vai Balasundaram, his brother Vai Ramalingam was elected as president and Siva Murugesan[2][3]was elected as the General Secretery for the party in the general body meeting held at Pudukkottai on 25 January 2020. In that same general body meeting, Ilamurugu Muthu[4] was elected as Executive President for the party. Ambedkar Makkal Iyakka executive president Ilamurugu Muthu met Tamil Nadu DGP C. Sylendra Babu and raised complaint against Rathnakumar and Chitra Lakshmanan for the controversial talk about maestro Ilaiyaraaja [5]
