Mongolian parliament speaker Miyegombo Enkhbold on Friday submitted an official demand letter to the country's prime minister, asking to stop boycotting plenary sessions of the parliament.

The demand letter came after the Mongolian Prime Minister Ukhnaa Khurelsukh and his government's 13 ministers adjourned the plenary sessions of the parliament on Thursday and Friday.

"We planned to discuss many important issues, especially the appointment of the new Minister of Food, Agriculture and Light Industry during the sessions. However, you and your ministers did not intentionally attend the sessions and not officially present the proposal to appoint the minister," the letter said, demanding an immediate end to the parliamentary boycott.

Mongolia's former Food, Agriculture and Light Industry Minister Batjargal Batzorig was dismissed from his post late October due to a scandal involving financial irregularities.

Khurelsukh and his ministers has not explained the cause of the boycott, while the prime minister recently submitted a request to dismiss the parliament speaker to the Constitutional Court.

Audio recordings were made public last year, which indicates that some officials of the Mongolian People's Party, including Enkhbold, allegedly used government positions as a tool to run the parliamentary election in 2016.

According to Khurelsukh, Enkhbold has been interfering in the handling of the case by abusing his power.
