Tough Stance On Corruption : Chinese President Xi Jinping Warns Of Intensifying Crackdown
China’s ruling Communist Party headed by President Xi Jinping has warned of intensifying the crackdown against corruption, saying that despite the decade-long fight against the menace, the problem is prevalent among thousands of cadres and officials.
As per PTI report, The Central Commission for Discipline Inspection (CCDI) of the Communist Party of China (CPC) has been busy overseeing a massive anti-graft campaign since Xi assumed power in 2012 under which over a million officials including top military personnel were punished.
The intensity of the campaign also attracted criticism that Xi, 70, has made effective use of it to silence his critics and rivals within the party.
