abstract
| - The CPI convenes its National Party Congress (NPC) every two and a half years to set major policies and choose the Central Committee, which comprises around 220 members including ministers, senior regulatory officials, provincial leaders, and military officers. The Central Committee acts as a sort of board of directors for the CPI, and its mandate is to select the Politburo, which has twenty-five members. In turn, the Politburo elects through backroom negotiations the four-person Standing Committee, which functions as the epicenter of the CPI's power and leadership. Prime minister Jing Rhi, who took over from Chairman Singh in 2037, sits atop the system as general secretary; as president and head of the military, he exerts enormous influence in setting parameters for government policy. The vice premier, Purte, heads the State Council, India's equivalent of a cabinet. In Rhi's transition to power, he has amassed more power than his predecessors; as the sole head of a number of important leading groups, his unilateral decision making has to some extent determine his party's prior commitment to consensus-based rule.
