BEIJING, Jan. 27 (Xinhua) -- Senior Communist Party of China (CPC) official Cai Qi on Tuesday called for efforts to promote high-quality Party building to ensure a strong guarantee for a good start to the 15th Five-Year Plan period (2026-2030).

Cai, a member of the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee and secretary of the Working Committee of the Central Party and State Institutions, made the remarks at a conference on Party work and discipline inspection work within central Party and state institutions.

Cai stressed that advancing the development of model Party organizations should serve as a key lever for Party building.

Noting that this year marks the 105th anniversary of the founding of the CPC and the opening year of the 15th Five-Year Plan period, the meeting urged central Party and state institutions to strictly enforce political discipline and rules, and resolutely implement decisions and plans of the CPC Central Committee.

They were told to improve mechanisms to prevent and correct deviations in views on performance evaluation, and to consider tangible results in stabilizing growth, promoting development, improving people's well-being and preventing risks as key criteria for assessment.

Continued efforts were called for to curb pointless formalities and ease burdens at the primary level.

Highlighting the importance of advancing anti-corruption work, the meeting underscored the necessity of implementing the guiding principles from the fifth plenary session of the 20th CPC Central Commission for Discipline Inspection. ■
