History

In September 1922, the CCP Hangzhou Group, the first CCP organization in Zhejiang, was established. Afterwards, more party organizations in Zhejiang were gradually established. In June 1927, the Zhejiang Provincial Committee was established. In April 1929, after the outbreak of the Chinese Civil War with the Kuomintang, the CCP decided to temporarily abolish the Provincial Committee. ^[1]

In late 1936, due to tensions with Japan, the Kuomintang and CCP temporarily stopped fighting and declared a Second United Front; the Second Sino-Japanese War broke out later in July 1937. In May 1938, the Zhejiang Provisional Provincial Committee was established and turned into an official Provincial Committee by September, with Liu Ying as secretary. In 1939, the Provincial Committee held the first Provincial Party Congress in Pingyang County. In February 1942, Liu Ying was arrested and died later in May, leading to the breakdown of the party committee. ^[1]

In 1945, the war with Japan ended in a Chinese victory, leading to the restart of the Civil War in 1946. On 3 May 1949, the People's Liberation Army (PLA) entered Hangzhou. Three days later on 6 May, the Provincial Party Committee was re-established. By February 1955, all of Zhejiang was under CCP control. Zhejiang held its Second Provincial Party Congress in 1956. ^[1]
