"Before 6th (March 6) the outcome in respect of inking poll pacts with all parties (potential allies) will be announced," Panneerselvam said.
All party leaders in the AIADMK-led front would address the rally, to be presided by Prime Minsiter Modi near here, he said.

The Puthiya Tamizhagam was allotted one seat and the All India N R Congress the lone segment in neighbouring Puducherry by the AIADMK.
