On April 9, some netizens broke the news that the northern suburbs of Nanchuan District, Chongqing, issued a notice that residents were not allowed to hold banquets at will. The news sparked heated discussions among netizens.
On the evening of the 9th, the Nanchuan District Civilization Office issued a notice on this matter, saying that recently, "a community in Chongqing has requested that only wedding and funeral banquets can be held and must be reported". Our office is highly concerned and immediately carried out offline verification, and the verification situation is now explained as follows:
In order to actively respond to the concerns of the people and cultivate a new style of civilization, Nanchuan District has launched a special management work on the abuse of banquets and advocated the reasonable operation of banquets. After investigation, there are deviations in the understanding of policies in individual street communities in the jurisdiction in the process of work implementation, and there are problems such as "simplification" and "one-size-fits-all" in the way of work. In the next step, we will draw inferences from one case and conduct a comprehensive investigation throughout the region, further guide the towns and streets in the jurisdiction to improve their working methods, and do a good job in civilized advocacy on the basis of reasonableness, reasonableness and legality.
We once again call for indiscriminate banquets to hurt the feelings of relatives and friends, cause extravagance and waste, and advocate that the masses handle new marriages and simple funerals, so as to jointly create a good social atmosphere.
