Nghe An exceeds the target of admitting party members according to Resolution No. 21-NQ/TW

Many specific solutions

In 2021, Minh Chau Hamlet Party Cell, Nam Thanh Commune (Yen Thanh District) had 57 Party members. According to Resolution No. 21 dated June 16, 2022 of the Party Central Committee on "Strengthening the consolidation of Party organization building and improving the quality of Party members in the new period" with the requirement of admitting Party members to reach 3 - 4% of the total number of existing Party members, Minh Chau Hamlet Party Cell was assigned the target of admitting 2 Party members per year.

In the general difficult conditions of resources, especially the awareness of the Party among some masses is not really full and complete enough to have the right motivation to strive to join the Party; Minh Chau hamlet Party cell, first of all the head - Secretary Nguyen Doan Minh discussed with the cell committee to build the content of thematic activities, put forward to the cell for discussion, contributed solutions and issued resolutions on developing party members for implementation.

As in 2024, Minh Chau hamlet Party Cell organized 2 thematic activities on the task of developing Party members, assigning responsibilities to each organization in the political system and each Party member. On that basis, Party committees, unions, and Party members monitor and detect positive factors among the masses to propagate, enlighten, raise awareness about the Party, and build aspirations to join the Party to introduce to the Party Cell.

“This process requires perseverance, method and really skillful “mass mobilization”, because creating changes in awareness, ideology and desire to join the Party in some individuals is not easy,” Party Cell Secretary Nguyen Doan Minh shared.

The Minh Chau hamlet Party Cell also pays special attention to improving the leadership capacity of the Party Cell, truly being the political nucleus of the hamlet through issuing accurate and popular resolutions to resolutely direct and promote the exemplary pioneering role and leadership of Party members so that the people can "look to". From there, enhance the prestige of the Party organization and Party members, create the right motivation and motive for the masses to want to join the Party. For 3 consecutive years (2022 - 2024), the Minh Chau hamlet Party Cell has fulfilled the target of admitting Party members; in 2024 alone, it exceeded 200% with 4 Party members admitted. For 3 consecutive years, the Party Cell has been classified as having excellently completed its tasks.

Party member Tran Thi Quyen, who was admitted to the Party in October 2024, shared: "When I stood under the Party flag to take the oath, I was truly moved and proud, and promised myself to try to contribute to the Party with my ability and enthusiasm."

Thanh Huong Commune Party Committee (Thanh Chuong) has 12 Party cells, but the number of Party members admitted in the 3 years of 2021 - 2023 is only 7 people, not meeting the annual target; in which there are some Party cells that have not admitted Party members for many years. In 2024, based on a serious assessment of the current situation, clearly identifying objective causes, especially subjective causes, the Standing Committee of Thanh Huong Commune Party Committee has proposed specific solutions.

According to comrade Nguyen Thai An - Secretary of Thanh Huong Commune Party Committee: The solution that the Party Committee focuses on is to propagate, thoroughly understand, and raise awareness of the meaning and importance of developing Party members for organizations in the political system, especially Party cells and Party committees, to have a higher sense of responsibility in discovering, nurturing, and creating sources of recruitment. That process promotes the role and responsibility of Party members in propagating, mobilizing, helping, and training the masses, and introducing them to the Party.

The commune Party Committee leads and directs the Vietnam Fatherland Front and socio-political organizations, agencies and units to create movements, activities, forums, etc., to discover positive factors to foster and introduce to the Party. At the same time, promote the pioneering and exemplary role of cadres and party members, first of all key cadres and heads of organizations in the political system, to create motivation, trust and encourage the masses to join the Party. With that determination, in 2024, Thanh Huong Commune Party Committee admitted 9 party members and was the first year in the 2020-2025 term to achieve the target of developing party members assigned by Thanh Chuong District Party Committee.

Exceeded party membership target

Developing party members is a task that Party committees at all levels in Nghe An have resolutely directed, using this criterion to consider and classify Party organizations, especially the Provincial Party Committee's Organizing Committee applies the criterion: Not classifying as excellently completing tasks for Party committees that do not fulfill the target of admitting party members.

In each Party organization, there have been many innovations and creativity in the work of developing Party members. For example, in Yen Thanh district, comrade Nguyen Thi Kim Anh - Deputy Head of the District Party Committee's Organization Board said: The District Party Committee has issued a Project on developing Party members and improving the quality of Party members for the period 2023-2025 and the following years, with specific targets and solutions, assigning specific responsibilities to Party committees and organizations in the political system; establishing a steering committee to implement the project at the district and grassroots levels. Every year, the district develops a plan and assigns Party member recruitment targets to each Party organization; periodically reviews every 6 months to organize work and urge units with difficulties; strengthens commendation and rewards at each level for units with good results in developing Party members; at the same time, there are regulations not to classify excellent task completion for Party cells with resources but unable to recruit Party members.

For Thanh Chuong district, based on the provincial targets and the results of reviewing the eligible masses for admission in each Party organization, the annual Party admission targets are assigned. Comrade Nguyen Trong Anh - Head of the Organization Board of Thanh Chuong District Party Committee said: In addition to the responsibilities of each Party organization, the District Party Committee assigns responsibility to 9 grassroots steering groups, directly to the standing and executive members of each group in implementing the Party development targets in each Party organization; assigns responsibility to the Fatherland Front Committee and the district's socio-political organizations to direct the lower levels to join in.

Thanh Chuong District Party Committee has also issued a plan to organize district-wide thematic activities on party member development twice a year, with 3 thematic activities in 2024. For difficult units, in addition to the work of the Standing Committee of the District Party Committee; cadres and experts of the District Party Committee's Organization Board directly participate in activities in each difficult party cell, especially units that have not admitted party members for many years, to direct, orient and discuss solutions.

Thanks to that, the results of party membership admission in each party organization under the provincial Party Committee have increased every year since the beginning of the term until now, increasing the total number of party members admitted in the whole province.

If in 2020, the whole province admitted 3,293 party members, in 2023 it admitted 5,097 party members and in 2024 it admitted 6,204 party members (as of November 15, 2024) - the highest year since the beginning of the 2020 - 2025 term to date, reaching 137.83% of the target of the Resolution of the 19th Nghe An Provincial Party Congress, term 2020 - 2025 and reaching 104.8% of the target of Resolution No. 21-NQ/TW.

In addition to the achieved results, there are still 10 district-level and affiliated Party Committees that have not met the Party member development target assigned by the province. Although the Party membership target for 2024 has been met and exceeded, some grassroots Party Committees are still concerned about the inability to ensure stability in Party member development. On the other hand, in addition to the difficulty in developing new Party members, the number of Party members leaving the Party and asking to leave the Party is on the rise.

These are issues that Party committees at all levels continue to worry about in order to innovate, create, and propose many positive solutions to develop Party members, contributing to building a strong Party in terms of organization, improving quality, and being the core of leadership at all levels.
