Xi made the remarks at the sixth plenary session of the 18th Central Commission for Discipline Inspection (CCDI) of the CPC, which opened on the same day.
Citing a new disciplinary regulation that took effect in the new year, Xi said discipline must be stricter than law to rein in all Party members.
He urged leading officials to strengthen their political alertness and ability to discern political affairs, take a firm stand, remember their political responsibility and always be loyal to the Party.
While calling for strengthened intra-Party supervision and supervision of state organs, Xi said the accountability system must be reinforced to hold any violators responsible.
The structure and organization of the supervision system must be optimized, Xi added, vowing to intensify inspection tours and deepen the practice.
Xi also highlighted graft-busters as the main force for the CPC to govern itself, saying CPC committees at all levels must support the work of discipline inspection commissions.
The president urged these graft-busters to set a high bar for themselves and take the lead to defend the Party constitution.
