In this Tuesday, March 20, 2018 photo released by Xinhua News Agency, Chinese President Xi Jinping waves to elected deputies after the closing session of the annual National People's Congress (NPC) at the Great Hall of the People in Beijing.

The move is part of a push by Xi to tighten party supervision over much of Chinese public life as he renews his uncontested rule free of constitutional limits on his terms in office.
