The invite was extended by state BJP president V.Muraleedharan, who apprised reporters here Thursday about the formal invitation.

"Three months back, I had a talk with him and so did a national leader of ours. He (Gopi) then said that he will make a decision at the appropriate time. Now that we have extended our invite to him to join our party, the decision has now to be made by him," said Muraleedharan.
