During the past year, the democratic oversight over the environmental protection of the Yangtze River has been conducted in an orderly and effective manner, achieving solid progress, he said.

Wang noted that it is necessary to closely follow the strategic plans of the high-quality development of the Yangtze Economic Belt made by the CPC Central Committee and continue to focus on key and difficult issues to carry out the democratic oversight.
