Ambedkar Makkal Iyakkam[2] (Ambedkar People Movement) is a political movement in the Indian state of Tamil Nadu working for the upliftment of Dalits. The movement was formed by V. Balasundaram in 1977 in a ceremony held at Rajaji Hall, Chennai, in the esteemed presence of Prabhudas Patwari, Hon’ble then Governor of Tamil Nadu.

After the demise of Vai Balasundaram, his brother Vai Ramalingam was elected as president and Siva Murugesan[3][4]was elected as the General Secretery for the party in the general body meeting held at Pudukkottai on 25 January 2020.

Sylendra Babu and raised complaint against Rathnakumar and Chitra Lakshmanan for the controversial talk about maestro Ilaiyaraaja [6]
