2014年5月20日，皇家军队对泰国实施戒严，宣布的目的是恢复人民的和平。然而，军方进行了干预，结束了七个月的政治动荡，这场政治动荡始于PDRC--泰国人民绝对民主委员会的英文缩写，国王是国家元首--占领了曼谷的主要街道十字路口和政府办公室。保守派动员要求民选总理英拉·西那瓦下台，并彻底解散“他信体系”--在PDRC看来，这是一个通过腐败和收买选票在过去13年中主导选举政治的网络。为了打击这种不公正现象，人民民主与和解委员会呼吁在举行下一次选举之前进行深入的宪法改革。
On May 20, 2014, the Royal Army imposed martial law on Thailand, with the declared purpose of restoring peace to the people. Allegedly, the military intervened to put an end to seven months of political turmoil that had begun when the PDRC—the English acronym for the Thai People's Committee for Absolute Democracy with the King as Head of State—occupied key street intersections and government offices in Bangkok. The conservative mobilization had demanded the deposition of elected Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra and the complete dismissal of “the Thaksin system”—a network that had dominated electoral politics in the previous thirteen years, in the PDRC's view through corruption and vote-buying. To fight this injustice, the PDRC had called for deep constitutional reforms before the next elections could be held.
