BEIJING, Feb. 28 (Xinhua) -- Graft-busters of the Communist Party of China (CPC) have descended on some Party agencies and state organs, kicking off a new round of anti-corruption inspections.
Pep rallies for the inspections were held on Sunday at the agencies including the Publicity Department of the CPC Central Committee, the National Development and Reform Commission, and the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security, said the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection (CCDI) of the CPC.
Graft-busters will target altogether 32 agencies, which also include the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission of the State Council, the General Administration of Customs and the State Administration of Press, Publication, Radio, Film and Television.
Inspections will last for two months, and inspectors will hear complaints and record tip-offs. This round of inspections is the first this year.
The new round of inspection will also reexamine four provinces -- Liaoning, Anhui, Shandong and Hunan, which have been examined in previous rounds of checks, to ensure the effect of inspection lasts.
Since the 18th CPC National Congress in late 2012, inspection teams have completed eight rounds of inspections, covering all major provincial governments, large state-owned enterprises and central financial institutions.
