Focusing on strengthening the crackdown, we will persist in investigating major cases as a breakthrough and promote the comprehensive and in-depth development of the "Quality Inspection Sword" action. Establish and improve the supervision system for major and important cases organized by provincial bureaus. For major sudden cases, provincial bureaus should go deep into the front line, rely on the front command, strengthen supervision and coordination, and effectively increase the intensity of case investigation.
