Posts left vacant by graft probes now filled

Reshuffles see different roles taken by dozens of officials at ministerial level

Sixty-one ministerial-level officials in 26 provinces, municipalities and autonomous regions have been reassigned to new government posts to fill gaps left by predecessors who are under investigation for corruption.

The personnel changes have been announced in the just-concluded two sessions in the provinces. The two sessions also ended in Shanghai and Shanxi province but saw no reshuffles.
