The progressive Move Forward and populist Pheu Thai has the lion's share of lower house seats after trouncing conservative, army-backed rivals in a 14 May election.
Pita, who was due to contest a parliamentary vote on the premiership on Wednesday, has argued his ownership of shares in a media company was not a violation of election rules.
The poll body said it found merit in a complaint alleging Pita was unqualified to run for the election because of his ownership of shares in a media company in violation of electoral rules.
The Move Forward Party leader has faced multiple complaints from rivals, 3 of which the poll body has dismissed for late submission, while 4 others against the party have been thrown out.
The liberal Move Forward party and the populist Pheu Thai Party were far out in front with 99% of votes counted, but it was far from certain either will form the next government.
China patiently invested capital, skill and technology in coal gasification. Unlike it, we won’t move from words to action. As crude prices decline, we lose interest.
