Play
The multicolour shirts will this afternoon rally at Victory Monument to oppose the reds petition to seek a royal pardon on fugitive former prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra's behalf.
"At the rally, the signature campaign will be launched against the Thaksin pardon," multicolour shirt leader Tul Sitthisomwong said on Friday.
Aside from the pardon issue, rally speakers will demand for a stop in the government's favouritism.
Metropolitan Police Region 1 commander Maj General Wichai Sangprapai said he expected the rally to proceed peacefully.
Phayathai police will be in charge of keeping peace at the rally site.
