The atmosphere at the parliament on Wednesday evening was more than lively as angry government and opposition MPs rushed to surround the seat of House Speaker Somsak Kiatsuranont after he asked lawmakers to vote on moving discussion of the four proposed reconciliation bills up the agenda list for urgent deliberation.
Many Democrat MPs encircled Mr Somsak, loudly expressing their dissatisfaction and demanding that he leave the seat.
The Democrats demanded the House speaker to stop the vote and carry on with the debate.
A number of Pheu Thai MPs rushed to intervene.
Police officers at the meeting moved to protect Mr Somsak, who later called for a temporary adjournment of the meeting.
