While the party itself claimed it was planning to hold a dinner for all coalition members soon, Prime Minister Srettha Thavisin has refuted rumors that the Palang Pracharath Party ( PPRP ) will be expelled from the government.

Palang Pracharath remains a staunch partnership companion, Mr Srettha said on Tuesday, adding that he has no reason to avoid meeting its president, Gen Prawit Wongsuwon.

The prime minister responded to rumors that had recently surfaced following an appointment with ex-prime secretary Thaksin Shinawatra, who is regarded as the de facto leader of Pheu Thai.

After a group of 40 caregiver legislators filed a complaint with the Constitutional Court against Mr. Srettha, Thaksin addressed writers. After appointing Pichit Chuenban to the government, despite the former having a criminal history, they argued that the prime minister does get fired for an honest violation. &nbsp, &nbsp,

Mr. Pichit resigned within days of his visit, but the judge has agreed to hear the circumstance against Mr. Srettha, and the court is holding a hearing on July 10 for the case.

In the meeting, Thaksin indicated that Gen Prawit was behind the senators ‘ walk.

The majority of the lawmakers who signed the petition did not support Mr. Srettha when he was nominated for prime minister last month. They are primarily martial men who are devoted to Gen. Prawit, who oversaw the monitoring of all 2019 Senate nominees.

Deputy Prime Minister Phatcharavat Wongsuwan, in his power as deputy adviser to the PPRP, also played down the rumoured issue. He said he had not discussed the issue with Gen Prawit, his nephew.

However, when asked to confirm whether the coalition remained as united as before, Pol Gen Phatcharavat simply said,” I do n’t know”.

Agriculture Minister Thamanat Prompow, in his capacity as director- standard of Palang Pracharath, said he appreciated Mr Srettha’s assurance that the group’s position was safe.

Mr. Thamanat stated that the group was set to host a meal for the coalition parties and that a day may soon be announced.

When asked if Gen Prawit may be joining, Mr. Thamanat explained that Gen Prawit, 78, typically delegated someone else to signify him at such occasions because it would be difficult for him to attend in person.
