"MPCC has written to Ghulam Ali requesting him to perform in Maharashtra. The party has asked him to convey time and place of his convenience," the spokesperson told reporters here.

Shiv Sena, part of the ruling alliance in Maharashtra, forced organisers of Ali's concert here to cancel it two days ago. Sena is opposed to Pakistani artists performing in India.
