A day after snapping its ties with the ruling All India Anna Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam-led alliance over seat-sharing row, Left parties in Tamil Nadu have received invitations from the opposition DMK to join its camp to fight the forthcoming Lok Sabha polls. 

After DMK Chief Karunanidhi, who had issued an open invitation to both CPI and CPI(M) on Thursday night to join the DMK-led coalition, it is the turn of Dravidar Kazhagam leader K Veeramani to welcome it. Veeramani, whose organisation has been the ideological fountainhead for the DMK, urged CPI-M and CPI to rethink their decision to face the Lok Sabha polls by themselves and align with DMK since they share their ideologies with the drividian outfit. "The two Left parties should drop their decision to face the polls alone and join the DMK front since their ideologies match", he said.
