BEIJING - The Communist Party of China (CPC) is the strong force to lead the Chinese people in realizing national rejuvenation, President Xi Jinping said on Saturday.

Xi, also general secretary of the CPC Central Committee and chairman of the Central Military Commission, made the remarks while addressing a meeting marking the 110th anniversary of the Revolution of 1911.

"Without the Communist Party of China, there would be no new China and no national rejuvenation," Xi said, stressing efforts to ensure that the CPC always firmly stands as the most reliable backbone of the Chinese nation and people.
