The Left parties signalled the end of their electoral alliance with Jayalalithaa-led AIADMK, blaming the ruling party's ‘approach' towards seat-sharing with CPI-M and CPI.
The state secretaries of the two parties, G Ramakrishnan (CPI-M) and D Pandian (CPI) announced their intention to face the polls together even as DMK chief M Karunanidhi sent feelers to them to join his party-led Democratic Progressive Alliance (DPA).
Asked if DMK would invite the two to join DPA, he said “ I don't think they should not be invited. We will accept them if they come,” he said.
