<h1>Thailand PM Dissolves Parliament for Early Election, Constitution Referendum Amid Border Conflict and Caretaker Government Limits</h1> Thailand's prime minister has obtained royal approval to dissolve Parliament, triggering general elections within 45-60 days under a Royal Decree. During this period, the prime minister will lead a caretaker government with restricted authority, including an inability to pass a new budget. The dissolution follows a political deal with the main opposition party to hold early elections and a referendum on drafting a new constitution, amid disputes over Senate voting powers in constitutional amendments. The move occurs during active armed conflict with a neighboring state over border claims, causing deaths and large-scale displacement. The previous prime minister was removed for ethics violations connected to communications with a foreign official before recent hostilities.
