Be wary of the resurgence of formalism
Don't let the burden reduction go to nothing
In the final analysis, the root cause of the difficulty in reducing the burden is that the ideological style is not correct, the work style is not solid, and the department-oriented thinking is serious.
Recently, the special working mechanism meeting on the rectification of formalism for the grassroots level was held, emphasizing that the rectification of formalism for the grassroots level Xi the burden reduction of the grassroots is an important part of the education of the theme education of socialism with Chinese characteristics in the new era, and constantly enhance the sense of urgency and political consciousness, in the theoretical study Xi, investigation and research, promotion of development, inspection and rectification, the rectification and prevention of formalism and bureaucracy will be placed in a more prominent position, and continue to promote the party style, government style, and social atmosphere for the better. Highlight the effectiveness of theme education with the results of rectification. This has fully released a strong signal of intensifying the rectification of formalism. As the so-called "thousands of lines on the top, a needle at the grassroots level", the grassroots is the "last mile" to implement the best decision-making and deployment, the terminal and end of promoting reform and development, and the place with the most contradictions and the greatest work pressure. There is no doubt that over the years, we have vigorously rectified formalism to reduce the burden on the grassroots, effectively solved some outstanding problems, and stopped some unhealthy tendencies. However, there are also some localities and departments that have reduced the burden to a mere formality, and even derived the phenomenon of "variation", which has been deeply criticized by the grassroots. For example, the number of pressure reduction meetings is small, but many times one will be held with several meetings, and one theme contains several topics, which is jokingly called the "Matryoshka" meeting; For example, there are fewer red-headed documents, but white-headed documents, ** notices, and WeChat group notices are "flying all over the sky", and some will send notices today and report the implementation tomorrow; For example, the use of information technology to reduce the burden, informatization is convenient, but the burden is heavier, WeChat work group at any time by @, unified numbers, fill in **, make accounts, record the system, sign in, punch in, take pictures, upload...Many grassroots workers deride themselves as "cousins" and "cousins". In order to accomplish the so-called work tasks, they have no choice but to use documents to implement documents, use meetings to implement meetings, and use forms to cope with forms.
The state of cadres and officers determines the state of the cause to a large extent. Grassroots organizations are in the front line of mass work, their work is complicated, their tasks are arduous and cumbersome, and everything has a bearing on the vital interests of the masses. If these manifestations of formalism are allowed to erode the grassroots and occupy a lot of time and energy of the grassroots cadres, then the policies and work promoted by the party and the state will either "hang in the air" and cannot fall from above; Either they "stop on the road" and fail to implement it for a long time, which will only delay the development of the cause of the party and the people and affect the sense of gain and happiness of the masses. In the final analysis, the root cause of the difficulty in reducing the burden is that the ideological style is not correct, the work style is not solid, and the department-oriented thinking is serious. The lack of overall coordination between various departments, each blowing its own trumpet, each singing its own tune, each asking for its own "account", too many inspections and assessments, too many too frequent, excessive traces, competing to the grassroots to find "visibility" and brush the "sense of existence", resulting in the rise of formalism and bureaucracy, the resurgence of the mountains and seas, and the untruthful and improper style of writing, which caused a serious burden on the grassroots. The drawbacks of formalism and bureaucracy are not a one-day problem, nor is it a one-day effort to lighten the burden on the grassroots at the root. The key to whether or not we can truly lighten the burden on the grassroots lies in whether the leaders and organs at all levels are well controlled. Complicated tasks and intricate tasks can only be avoided from the downstream to the grassroots level by diverting the flow from the upstream gate from the source. When making arrangements for tasks and work at all levels, we may wish to think more from the perspective of others and seek truth from facts, give full consideration to the actual conditions at the grassroots level, clearly distinguish between the important and the urgent, and refrain from increasing the number of layers of work. At the same time, we must dare to delegate power to the grassroots and return power to the grassroots level, move more resources, services, and management to the grassroots level, and make the grassroots units less pressure and resistance and more motivated and energetic as much as possible. Of course, delegating power and returning power does not mean shifting and shirking the responsibilities that should be borne by the higher authorities to the grassroots level. In real life, some organs pay lip service to the fact that they will not increase the burden on the grassroots, but they blindly shirk the pressure and responsibility to the grassroots, and are keen to sign a "letter of responsibility" with the grassroots in order to become their own "exemption list" in the future. This seems to be forcing grassroots officials to take responsibility, but in fact, it puts too much pressure on grassroots cadres. Many grassroots cadres have reported that we are not afraid of hardships and overtime, but we are afraid of carrying snow to fill wells and working in vain; We are also not afraid of responsibility and accountability, but we are afraid of blind responsibility and being held accountable at will. This requires all departments at all levels to engage in less "one-size-fits-all", sign fewer "letters of responsibility", and make fewer "one-vote vetoes", so as not to let grassroots cadres carry the ideological burden of "doing things in vain as soon as something happens", and to increase positive incentives, encourage responsibility, and build the grassroots into a hot land for struggle that is responsible, responsible, and responsible, and establish a clear orientation of heavy work, actual performance, and heavy responsibility.
Formalism is the great enemy of the party's mission and tasks in the new era and new journey, and it is necessary to dig deep into the root cause, identify the crux of the problem, accurately rectify it, and enhance the actual effect. To rectify formalism and reduce the burden on the grassroots, we need to continue to exert efforts and work for a long time, and we must insist on turning the knife inward, above and below the rate, and treating both the symptoms and the root causes. Only by truly reducing the burden on the grassroots and freeing the grassroots cadres from some useless affairs and jumping out of some wasteful and idling involution, can they go into battle lightly, leap forward, take responsibility without distractions, do solid work, burst out more creative vitality and innovative power in a relaxed atmosphere, and do practical and good things for the people.
