Hindustan Times · politics

China's Communist Party is preparing for a significant generational shift in leadership, with a key congress scheduled to confirm national leaders until 2032. While Xi Jinping's position is secure, hundreds of senior roles are open for promotion. A gathering of the Central Committee from October 26th to 29th will discuss party governance and a potential transition. The "seventh generation" of leaders, born in the late 1960s and 1970s, are emerging as potential.
