Activist students representing the United Front of Thammasat and Demonstration went to the court on Chaeng Watthana Road, Bangkok, to file their complaint against the Election Commission’s (EC) organisation of the election. The Bhumjaithai Party of caretaker Prime Minister Anutin Charnvirakul won the Feb 8 general election. It is awaiting the EC's announcement of the official results while negotiating the formation of a coalition with other political parties.
