The Communist Party of China (CPC) organizations at all levels should act in accordance with the Constitution and laws, Xi Jinping, general secretary of the CPC Central Committee, has stressed.

As the ruling party, the CPC should insist on governing by law, which is of great significance to promoting the rule of law in an all-around way, Xi said while presiding on Saturday over a seminar of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee.

The leadership of the Party, people being masters of the country and the rule of law should be closely integrated, he added.

Leading cadres at various levels should take the lead in acting by law, and whether they can do it should be an important criterion that organizational departments at all levels use in evaluation, Xi said.
