Great Achievements in Comprehensively Deepening Reform in the New Era—Political Development

In the new era, we have deepened political reform with a focus on ensuring unity between leadership by the Party, the running of the country by the people, and law-based governance. We have moved at a faster pace to improve the institutions, standards, and procedures of our socialist democracy and fostered broader, fuller, and sounder people's democracy. 

We have strengthened and upheld the CPC Central Committee's authority and its centralized, unified leadership and actively developed whole-process people's democracy. This has seen us advancing comprehensive, extensive, and coordinated development of the systems and institutions through which the people run the country, establishing diverse, unimpeded, and well-organized democratic channels, diversifying the forms of democracy, and expanding people's orderly political participation at all levels and in various fields. In doing so, we have ensured that China's governance and institutions in all sectors give full expression to the will of the people, protect their rights and interests, and spark their creativity. While remaining committed to the path of socialist rule of law with Chinese characteristics, we have thus promoted the steady development of socialist democracy. 

Through the comprehensive deepening of reform in the new era, we have given better play to the strengths of the socialist political system with Chinese characteristics, leading to the consolidation and development of a lively, stable, and united political atmosphere. 

Moreover, we have continued to develop the system of socialist rule of law with Chinese characteristics and secured substantial progress in advancing the rule of law in China. This has enabled us to better leverage the rule of law to consolidate foundations, ensure stable expectations, and deliver long-term benefits. The CPC's ability to lead and govern the country through law-based methods has also been notably enhanced.
