The DMK today alleged that the BJP-led Centre was hampering B R Ambedkar's ideals behind the making of the Indian Constitution.

DMK's Working President M K Stalin said the Centre was working towards "weakening" social justice, without elaborating further.

"The BJP-led Centre steered by Prime Minister Narendra Modi is working in a way (that is) hampering Ambedkar's ideals which led to the making of the Constitution," said Stalin.

After paying homage to Ambedkar on his birth anniversary here, the DMK leader appealed to his cadres and workers of 'friendly parties' to take a vow to "end such betrayal."
