Vaiko-led People's Welfare Front today continued to woo Tamil Maanila Congress leader GK Vasan for an alliance, saying the invitation issued to the former Union minister for a poll-pact "stays."
"The invitation (issued earlier) stays. But they have to decide," CPI(M) state secretary G Ramakrishnan told reporters in Chennai in response to a question in this regard.
CPI(M), besides CPI and VCK, is part of the four-party PWF, led by MDMK founder Vaiko.
Earlier, all PWF leaders-Mr Vaiko, Mr Ramakrishnan, CPI state secretary R Mutharasan and VCK founder Thol Thirumavalavan, had called on Mr Vasan in January, inviting him to join the coalition.
Mr Vasan, who quit Congress to resurrect his father GK Moopanar founded Tamil Maanila Congress in 2014, has, however, been weighing his options about an alliance.
PWF had recently clinched a pact with actor-politician Vijayakanth's DMDK to face the May 16 Assembly polls in Tamil Nadu, allotting 124 seats to it.
