 Crisis-hit Thailand will hold fresh general election on July 20, authorities said on Wednesday, nearly three months after a controversial snap poll was declared invalid deepening the political divide in the country.

The Yingluck Shinawatra-led Government and the Election Commission agreed at a meeting this afternoon to set July 20 as the date of the fresh elections after the February 2 snap polls were declared null and void.
