Banned gatherings due to P-Move protest outside a government building.

Rallies organized by the People's Movement for a Just Society (P-Move) movement outside the government building have continued for a second week. However, police have banned any public gatherings within 50 meters of the government building until Wednesday next week. The decision was taken to avoid possible disruption of the ministerial meeting during the ongoing protests.

Access to Ratchadamnoen Nok Street and Phitsanulok Street will be closed starting from Makawan Rangsan Bridge to Misakawan Junction, according to Pol Lt. Gen. Titi Sengsawan, deputy commissioner of the Metropolitan Police Bureau.

The decision comes amid the ongoing P-Move protest that began on Oct. 2. The group came to the government building to demand the fulfillment of promises made to them by the Pheu Thai government in February this year. Among the group's nine demands included improved resource management of local resources, fair and equal treatment of marginalized communities in land disputes, and universal basic income.

In response to the protests, Deputy Prime Minister and Commerce Minister Phumtham Vechayachai appointed Agriculture Minister Thammanath Prompov to negotiate with P-Move. The agriculture minister is expected to submit a report to the cabinet this week.
