Townships and towns are grassroots organizations in rural areas, and they are responsible for the important tasks of grassroots governance and development. However, in recent years, the phenomenon of young township cadres rarely entering the villages has become more and more obvious, which not only weakens the sense of existence of township and town cadres in the countryside, but also may give birth to the aristocracy of the township civil servants.
First of all, the phenomenon of township and town cadres entering the villages is seldom likely to lead to poor rural governance. Township and town cadres live in rural areas, and they do not visit villages when they are in the villages, which means that they cannot keep abreast of the needs of the people's livelihood, social conditions, public opinions, and the demands of the masses at the grassroots level. Such a situation will lead to the loss of effective basis for decision-making, which in turn will affect the direction and effect of rural development. Rural governance requires township and town cadres to communicate face-to-face with farmers and understand their real thoughts and needs, so as to truly participate in advance, guide during the event, and evaluate after the event.
Second, the phenomenon of fewer township and town civil servants entering villages has triggered a "shift from real to virtual" in township and town work. Township and township civil servants are more confined to their offices, have less contact with the outside world, and have a correspondingly less grasp of the actual situation at the grassroots level. Under such circumstances, they are prone to fall into paper talk and lack in-depth thinking and research on practical issues such as agriculture and rural development. Policy formulation and project implementation need to be closely integrated with reality, and local realities and farmers' needs need to be fully considered, rather than simply applying templates and theories. Only by regularly going to villages to communicate with farmers and understand practical problems can we better provide targeted policies and measures for rural development.
At the same time, the fact that township and town cadres are rarely entering the villages has also contributed to the trend of aristocracy among township and town civil servants. Township and town cadres enjoy relatively high salaries and benefits, and their work is relatively easy. As a result, some township and town cadres began to stay away from the grassroots and the peasants, forming a kind of "greenhouse effect." In such an environment, township and town civil servants are prone to rigid thinking and lack sensitivity to the requirements of reform and opening up and the changes in social development. The phenomenon of aristocratic township cadres not only undermines the fairness of rural governance, but also affects the vitality of rural development.
In order to change this situation, township and town cadres should pay attention to visiting villages and communicating with farmers. First of all, they can make village visits a part of their daily work by making a work plan. Second, township and town cadres can establish good communication channels with villagers, organize regular forums or listen to the opinions of villagers' representatives. In addition, they can actively participate in village-level economic projects and learn about and experience the life and work of farmers first-hand.
The countryside is the foundation of our nation, and farmers are an important force in realizing rural revitalization. Township and town cadres should further enhance their sense of responsibility and mission, carry forward the spirit of serving the people, maintain their concern for and participation in the grassroots, and ensure that they have the feelings of the village in their hearts and the voice of the village in their ears, and promote the development of townships and towns in their own actions. Only in this way can our rural areas truly usher in new vitality and hope. Autumn and Winter Check-in Challenge
