BEIJING, Nov. 26-- The Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China (CPC) Central Committee on Monday held a meeting and reviewed two documents on regulation of the work of the Party's rural primary-level organizations, and the work rules for the Party's disciplinary inspection agencies. Xi Jinping, general secretary of the CPC Central Committee, presided over the meeting. The meeting stressed that the revision of the regulation regarding rural primary-level organizations' work is important in upholding and strengthening the overall Party leadership over rural work. Party organizations in villages must exercise overall leadership over diverse organizations and all kinds of work in their villages and see to major issues of their villages, according to the meeting. The meeting required stronger rural Party branches and selecting competent chiefs for them. The problem of lax and weak governance at rural Party branches must be addressed, the meeting said, calling for the recruitment of more competent young people in rural areas into the Party. The meeting called on Party branches in poor villages to take the lead and mobilize the public in winning the battle against poverty. Moreover, the meeting asked these organizations to improve their abilities to unite and serve the public to provide a strong political and organizational underpinning for an all-round rural vitalization in the new era. |
