The anti-establishment Ratsadon group demands the dissolution of the House of Representatives before its March term end, advocating for an immediate general election.
The group urges the Constitutional Court to expedite its review of the MP election bill and calls on the Election Commission to swiftly issue new election rules.
Ratsadon reaffirms its broader political agenda, including the ouster of Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha, the drafting of a new democratic Constitution, and the amendment of the lèse majesté law (Section 112).
These demands were issued during the 46th anniversary commemoration of the October 6th, 1976 political tragedy, an event attended by opposition parties and civic groups at Thammasat University.
