Xi inspects work of easing primary-level burdens in Hunan

Xi Jinping, general secretary of the Communist Party of China Central Committee, inspected a village in Changde city in Central China's Hunan province on Tuesday.

Xi heard a report from village officials on local efforts to ease the burdens of those working at the primary level in rural areas in recent years.

The CPC Central Committee has made it clear that efforts must be made to reduce burdens at the primary level and resolutely address pointless formalities and bureaucratism, he said, stressing that efforts must be continued in this regard.
